[VM] Use assert assignable implementation for explicit downcasts

This makes explicit downcasts more efficient by re-using the
optimizations we already have for implicit downcasts.

For implicit/explicit as checks we use the symbol to distinguish which
exception to throw if the check fails.  So this does not actually
require unification of _CastError and _TypeError.
