Fix C++ cast of derived class to base class
PR c++/28907 points out that casting from a derived class to a base class fails in some situations. The problem turned out to be a missing use of value_embedded_offset. One peculiarity here is that, if you managed to construct a pointer-to-derived with an embedded offset of 0, the cast would work -- for example, one of the two new tests here passes without the patch. This embedded offset stuff is an endless source of bugs. I wonder if it's possible to get rid of it somehow. Regression tested on x86-64 Fedora 34. Bug: https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28907
