Chris Tate dd3ea7c00c Narrow filter results through written type predicates with checked conversions
`.filter` with a written type predicate (`(p): p is Cat => ...`, or a
guard function passed as a value such as `filter(isDog)`) was refused with
SC1090, because TypeScript does not check the predicate. An inferred
predicate that keeps several union arms (`v => v !== undefined` over
`(string | number | undefined)[]`) was refused too.

The filter loop now keeps the receiver's element type, and the result
converts to the predicate's type element by element
(filter-predicates.ts):
- a union element to one of its arms, or to a union of some of its arms,
  by its tag;
- a checked-dynamic element by dynCheck;
- a class instance to a subclass by its class;
- a tuple or record to one with the same fields, field by field.

An element the predicate's type does not describe, kept because the
predicate returned true for it, throws a catchable TypeError: "a kept
element is not a 'Cat' (a type predicate returned true for a value of
another type)". The diagnostics fixture filter-narrow.ts, which pinned
the three refusals, compiles now; corpus 7007 covers its cases.

Fixes #1680.
