I was worried that by allowing implicit const_rtx->subreg_shape
conversions, it would be less obvious that the rtx has to have
code SUBREG.  I.e. a checked conversion would be hidden in the
constructor rather than being explicit.

If with David's new rtx hierarchy we end up with an rtx_subreg
subclass then I agree we should have a constructor that takes
one of those.

Thanks,
Richard
