Note that these two types might not be the same type.  The C
standard allows the possibility that uint_least8_t might be an
extended integer type, distinct from the standard integer type
unisigned char.  This distinction matters both because of pointer
compatibility and because the standard character types get
special treatment under the anti-aliasing rules.  AFAICT there is
never any reason to use uint_least8_t, except in those rare cases
when uint_least8_t is used by virtue of needing to call a
third-party library (and in that case it is likely that a poor
choice was made by developers of that library).
