PR 35635 -Wconversion problematic with bitfields

[Manuel López-Ibáñez]

The following patch fixes PR 35635 by doing two things:

1) Boolean expressions are ignored. I cannot think of a testcase where
an implicit conversion from boolean to another type loses information.
Since C front-end uses integer_type for boolean expressions, not
ignoring boolean expressions led to unwanted warnings.

2) The type of a conditional expression is ignored if both branches of
the expression are constants. In such case, we look directly at the
conversion performed on each branch. This change makes -Wconversion to
give finer warnings in some cases:

uc = x ? 1 : -1;

instead of : warning: conversion to 'unsigned char' from 'int' [-Wconversion]
it now says: warning: negative integer implicitly converted to
unsigned type [-Wsign-conversion]

Therefore, I had to update a bunch of testcases.

Bootstrapped and regression tested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu with
--enable-languages=all.

OK for trunk?
