## Summary Following up from earlier discussion on Discord, this PR adds logic to flag casts as redundant when the inferred type of the expression is the same as the target type. It should follow the semantics from [mypy](https://github.com/python/mypy/pull/1705). Example: ```python def f() -> int: return 10 # error: [redundant-cast] "Value is already of type `int`" cast(int, f()) ```
Markdown files within the mdtest/ subdirectory are tests of type inference and type checking;
executed by the tests/mdtest.rs integration test.
See crates/red_knot_test/README.md for documentation of this test format.
