Boolean literals not recognized as Literals #11232

Description

@jolaf

The following code:

from typing import Literal, Tuple, Union

x: bool = False

def f() -> Union[Tuple[Literal[True], int], Tuple[Literal[False], str]]:
    if x:
        return (True, 5)
    else:
        return (False, 'oops')

print(f())

produces the following ouput:

$ python3 test.py
(False, 'oops')

$ mypy test.py
test.py: note: In function "f":
test.py:7:16: error: Incompatible return value type (got "Tuple[bool, int]", expected "Union[Tuple[Literal[True], int], Tuple[Literal[False], str]]")  [return-value]
            return (True, 5)
                   ^

From my point of view, the code looks correct, and mypy should not object.
