Cast: Add Cast

[LilyMakesThings]

Requires VM changes: TurboWarp/scratch-vm#145

Simple extension to use Scratch.Cast to convert inputs to strings, numbers, or booleans.

You can also get what type of value an input is.

Bonus: it works as a coupler for values ༼ つ ◕_◕ ༽つ

HOWW, its a reporter thoe. I am so confused

[LilyMakesThings]

default just doesn't cast the value, which allows it to function as a coupler :)

But howw???????

i am going to have to lookup what the different between switch and if else does.

(edit):
i figured it out using stack-overflow

Set the output variable of the block to null and its isDynamic to true in getInfo.

When defining the block, set "isDynamic" to true, and "output" to null (in that order)!

Keep in mind, this method of achieving this does have the side effect of making any menu with "acceptReporters: false" not show up on the block, but it is the simplest method.
