Add native support for serializing char arrays without FLATDATA
Summary:
Support is added to serialize arrays of type char or unsigned char directly,
without any wrappers. All invocations of the FLATDATA wrappers that are
obsoleted by this are removed.
This includes a patch by Russell Yanofsky to make char casting type safe.
The serialization of CSubNet is changed to serialize a bool directly rather
than though FLATDATA. This makes the serialization independent of the size
of the bool type (and will use 1 byte everywhere).
This is backport of Core PR12740
Test Plan:
ninja check-all
Also cross compile on arm and aarch64 as they tend to do weird things with char.
