* let `SIL.Type` conform to `TypeProperties` to share the implementation of common type properties between the AST types and `SIL.Type`
* call references to an `AST.Type` `rawType` (instead of just `type`)

Replace `unconditional_checked_cast` to an existential metatype with an `init_existential_metatype`, it the source is a conforming type.
Note that init_existential_metatype is better than unconditional_checked_cast because it does not need to do any runtime casting.
