This sniff will check that PHP type casts are: - lowercase; - short form, i.e. (bool) not (boolean); - normalized, i.e. (float) not (real). The sniff also discourages the use of the `(unset)` and the `(binary)` casts, including the `b"$string"` binary cast, though it is susceptible to bug squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer 1574. The sniff has been added to the `WordPress-Core` ruleset. Once the minimum PHPCS version has gone up to PHPCS 3.3.0+, the lowercase check part of the sniff can be removed in favour of adding the `Generic.PHP.LowerCaseType` sniff to the ruleset instead. Fixes 1481
