[Bug c/43162] option to set the "promoted" type of parameters of arithmetic

I don't think we should be doing this. GCC strives to be standards-conforming
and the requested feature would purposefully make us violate the standard.

There is a point for extensions, but I don't think changing the meaning
of a perfectly well-formed program is not what we should be doing. The
same effect can of course be achieved by simply adding the explicit cast
to the code.
