Description

This PR implements the __transmute intrinsic. As Rust this intrinsic should be a no-op semantically equal to a pointer cast. Although this PR does not aim that it is 100% no-op yet.

At the moment some trade-offs were taken:

1 - References, pointers etc... are not allowed at the moment;
2 - u16 and u32 actually occupy 64bits. To allow transmute to work in complex aggregates, this PR is accepting them as u64. Doing otherwise would forbid __transmute to be no-op. Specially in complex aggregates;
