For numeric casts, there are quite a few cases to consider:
* casting between two integers of the same size (e.g. i32 -> u32) is a no-op
* casting from a smaller integer to a bigger integer (e.g. u32 -> u8) will truncate
* casting from a larger integer to a smaller integer (e.g. u8 -> u32) will
* zero-extend if the target is unsigned
* sign-extend if the target is signed
* casting from a larger integer to a smaller integer (e.g. u32 -> u8) will truncate
* casting from a smaller integer to a larger integer (e.g. u8 -> u32) will
* zero-extend if the source is unsigned
* sign-extend if the source is signed
* casting from a float to an integer will round the float towards zero
* **NOTE: currently this will cause Undefined Behaviour if the rounded
value cannot be represented by the target integer type**. This is a bug
