Subject: Cdiff TransTypes.java (no redundant cast)

It turns out that this code will never cause the creation of a redundant cast in
the bytecode. That's because we're forcing the type of the expression to the
target type of the cast. That means that the outer cast will always be seen by
the code generator as redundant.

However, that means we can probably simplify this method to

     public void visitTypeCast(TypeCast tree) {
       result = translate(tree.expr, erasure(tree.type));
     }
