Fill in omission of `cast_or_null<>` and `dyn_cast_or_null<>` for types
that wrap pointers (e.g., smart pointers).
Type traits need to be slightly stricter than for `cast<>` and
`dyn_cast<>` to resolve ambiguities with simple types.
There didn't seem to be any unit tests for pointer wrappers, so I tested
`isa<>`, `cast<>`, and `dyn_cast<>` while I was in there.
This only supports pointer wrappers with a conversion to `bool` to check
for null. If in the future it's useful to support wrappers without such
a conversion, it should be a straightforward incremental step to use the
`simplify_type` machinery for the null check. In that case, the unit
tests should be updated to remove the `operator bool()` from the
`pointer_wrappers::PTy`.

subsequent changes are easier to review. About to fix some layering
issues, and wanted to separate out the necessary churn.
Also comment and sink the include of "Windows.h" in three .inc files to
match the usage in Memory.inc.

We don't want cast and dyn_cast to work on temporaries. They don't extend
lifetime like a direct bind to a reference would, so they can introduce
hard to find bugs.
I added tests to make sure we don't regress this. Thanks to Eli Friedman for
noticing this and for his suggestions on how to test it.

Additionally, all such cases are handled with no dynamic check.
All `classof()` of the form
class Foo {
[...]
static bool classof(const Bar *) { return true; }
[...]
}
where Foo is an ancestor of Bar are no longer necessary.
Don't write them!
Note: The exact test is `is_base_of<Foo, Bar>`, which is non-strict, so
that Foo is considered an ancestor of itself.
This leads to the following rule of thumb for LLVM-style RTTI:
The argument type of `classof()` should be a strict ancestor.
