     atomic: make atomic_store_ptr type-aware
(cherry picked from commit cc96f92a570e05636a20fdd15d4616b127bb9ecc)

A couple of folks expressed concerns about this commit when it landed
in main due to it being too flexible (it allows you to store pointers
to non-pointer types, e.g.:

  char c;
  uintptr_t p;

  atomic_store_ptr(&c, p);

Silently becomes:

  atomic_store_char(&c, (char)p);

Are you planning to address this?
