I am worried about this big casting conversion matrix. New rules should
not be invented, and the following should *always* be equivalent:
function foo(typehint $var)
vs:
function foo($var) {
$var = typehint $var;
In general, I am not in favour of casting typehints, as it would be a
different behaviour from the hard-check typehints that we already have
for classes and arrays.
