When lacking a common supertype the GLB operation makes the type of the cast
unreachable, which errors on getHeapType in the later code.

Fixes #6738

// earlier), then the cast is unreachable because the cast type had no
// common supertype with the ref, which is invalid. This is the same as the
// check below us, but we must do it first (as getHeapType fails otherwise).

We could tighten this up even more by checking that the result type is a reference type. So if it somehow was set to i32 or something, we would still avoid the assertion failure.

Sounds good, I added that now as an extra test (it has a more generic error message, and I didn't want to lose the specific explanation for the supertype issue).
