c++: reference cast, conversion fn [PR113141]

The second testcase in 113141 is a separate issue: we first decide that the
conversion is ill-formed, but then when recalculating the special c_cast_p
handling makes us think it's OK.  We don't want that, it should continue to
fall back to the reinterpret_cast interpretation.  And while we're here,
let's warn that we're not using the conversion function.

Note that the standard seems to say that in this case we should
treat (Matrix &) as const_cast<Matrix &>(static_cast<const Matrix &>(X)),
which would use the conversion operator, but that doesn't match existing
practice, so let's resolve that another day.  I've raised this issue with
CWG; at the moment I lean toward never binding a temporary in a C-style cast
to reference type, which would also be a change from existing practice.

	PR c++/113141

gcc/c-family/ChangeLog:

	* c.opt: Add -Wcast-user-defined.

gcc/ChangeLog:
