The partial byte(or even 0) of the value returned due to passing a wrong optlen should be considered as an error. "On error, -1 is returned, and errno is set appropriately.". Success returned in that case only confuses the user.
It is feasible that some app could use bool or u8 for options that have 0 or 1 values and that code has so far worked. This change would break that.
