Introduce Value::stripPointerCastsSameRepresentation
This patch allows current users of Value::stripPointerCasts() to force
the result of the function to have the same representation as the value
it was called on. This is useful in various cases, e.g., (non-)null
checks.
In this patch only a single call site was adjusted to fix an existing
misuse that would cause nonnull where they may be wrong. Uses in
attribute deduction and other areas, e.g., D60047, are to be expected.
