Drop unnecessary Node::toInputElement() virtual function

[Chris Dumez]

Drop unnecessary Node::toInputElement() virtual function and use the usual is<HTMLInputElement>() / downcast< HTMLInputElement >() instead.

I might have written it:

    return is<HTMLInputElement>(node) && downcast<HTMLInputElement>(*node).shouldAppearIndeterminate();

I noticed you doing something similar in a function below.

It’s peculiar that this code checks is<HTMLInputElement> yet has a comment stating that the check is not needed. I’m thinking that the comment is likely correct, and we could probably write:

    return downcast<HTMLInputElement>(shadowHost());

But obviously it’s less risky to leave the behavior unchanged.

Done before landing.

I checked that this is only used by RangeInputType so I made the change.
