For casts like 'x as T!' or 'x as! T!', generate a disjunction that
attempts to bind both the optional and non-optional T, preferring the
optional branch of the disjunction.
Note that this should effectively be NFC at the moment because we're
still generating the IUO type for T! rather than a plain optional, so
we first attempt the IUO type (as opposed to an Optional) which
goes through existing logic that handles the IUOs as part of the type
system.
The new rewriting logic will actually do something once we switch over
to generating Optional when T! is uttered.
