[Bug tree-optimization/23745] New: VRP does not get information from casts from a smaller precision

[pinskia at gcc dot gnu dot org]

An example:
int f(_Bool a)
{
  int t = a;
  if (t != 2)
   return 0;
  return 1;
}
int f1(unsigned char a)
{
  int t = a;
  if (t != 256)
   return 0;
  return 1;
}

Both of these we can find that if statement is always true.  No other pass does 
this currently.
