* `$YAML::XS::Boolean` (since v0.67)

Default is undef.
Default: undef

When used with perl 5.36 or later, builtin booleans will work out of the
box. They will be created by `Load` and recognized by `Dump` automatically
(since YAML::XS 0.89).

```perl
say Dump({ truth => builtin::true });
# truth: true
```

For older perl versions you can use the following configuration to serialize
data as YAML booleans:

When set to `"JSON::PP"` or `"boolean"`, the plain (unquoted) strings `true`
and `false` will be loaded as `JSON::PP::Boolean` or `boolean.pm` objects.
