Remove unsound casting functions The casting functions in `unsafe.rs` were unsound (i.e., they allowed safe code to cause undefined behavior). While they did appear to be used in a way that wouldn't cause UB the fact that there exists unsound functions is unsettling. This commit removes those functions and replaces it with a macro that performs the same reification - the difference is that the macro call will also include the checks which are required to prevent UB. A macro was chosen instead of a function for two reasons: 1. A macro can keep the same code generation whereas a function would require going through an `Option` which has negative impacts on code generation (niche values cause poor DCE). 2. There exist other `unsafe` code blocks in the crate and an attempt to make Rhai 100% safe is completely out-of-scope for this merge request, so we may as well use `unsafe` in the macro. Regarding (2) above, I may come back at a later date with a 100% safe `reify` function but only once the other `unsafe` blocks are removed. For posterity, said function would look something like: ```rust fn reify<A: Any, C>(value: A) -> Option<C> { let mut v = Some(value); let v: &mut dyn Any = &mut v; v.downcast_mut::<Option<C>>().map(Option::take) } ```
