Use downcast<SVG*Element>() instead of toSVG*Element()

[Chris Dumez]

Use downcast<SVG*Element>() instead of toSVG*Element() and get rid of the transition macros for SVG Elements.

IMHO, you should review the use of pointers in the cases with:
    if (foo and foo->isBar())
        downcast<Bar>(foo)->bang();

Some of them use "downcast<Bar>(foo)->bang();", other do "downcast<Bar>(*foo).bang();". Unifying the style would be nice.

downcast<SVGElement>(*m_node).title()

ditto.

nullptr

hahahaha

Looks like this should be a ref.

ditto.

ditto.

nullptr

I would put the dereference inside the downcast... not important though.

There is something very very wrong going here, you should add a test.

text->parent() can be null apparently since it is checked by the ternary operator. BUT, it is used for lengthContext.

nullptr

Can this be isSVGSVGElement()?

nullptr

nullptr

downcast<Bar>(foo)->bang() -- prettier
downcast<Bar>(*foo).bang() -- clearer to the compiler when generating the code for downcast that foo can't be null, but modern compilers probably get this right already, since it knows that foo was dereferenced a couple lines earlier

I’ve been using downcast<Bar>(*foo).bang() because I never want to depend on the compiler to not add a bogus null check.

http://trac.webkit.org/changeset/173866 should fix the build but I'll watch the bots to make sure.
