Use the standard utility rather than reimplementing type intersection.
The new code is simpler, shorter, and properly supports exactness,
avoiding an assertion failure in the added test case. The other
functional change is that when one of the intersected heap types is
bottom and the type GLB is a non-nullable reference to bottom, the
result of the intersection is None where it was previously a Cone.

Why did this change? Previously the ref.cast emitted a nullable bottom type, and it should still keep doing so IIUC... the description mentions a change to non-nullable ones, but that's not the case here, so it must be something else?

This is what I was referring to with non-nullable references because the possible contents in $global is a non-null value, even though its static type is nullable.

Oh right, the actual value is non-nullable, thanks!
