55b81e35a7 Modify rules for default variability of pointed-to types.
Now, the pointed-to type is always uniform by default (if an explicit
rate qualifier isn't provided).  This rule is easier to remember and
seems to work well in more cases than the previous rule from 6d7ff7eba2.

6d7ff7eba2 Update defaults for variability of pointed-to types.
Now, if rate qualifiers aren't used to specify otherwise, varying
pointers point to uniform types by default.  As before, uniform
pointers point to varying types by default.

   float *foo;  // varying pointer to uniform float
   float * uniform foo;  // uniform pointer to varying float

These defaults seem to require the least amount of explicit
uniform/varying qualifiers for most common cases, though TBD if it
would be easier to have a single rule that e.g. the pointed-to type
is always uniform by default.

e52104ff55 Pointer fixes/improvements.
Allow <, <=, >, >= comparisons of pointers
Allow explicit type-casting of pointers to and from integers
Fix bug in handling expressions of the form "int + ptr" ("ptr + int"
  was fine).
Fix a bug in TypeCastExpr where varying -> uniform typecasts
  would be allowed (leading to a crash later)
