Auto merge of #108442 - scottmcm:mir-transmute, r=oli-obk

Add `CastKind::Transmute` to MIR

~~Nothing actually produces it in this commit, so I don't know how to test it, but it also means it shouldn't be possible for it to break anything.~~

Includes lowering `transmute` calls to it, so it's used.
