Originally reported as WebAssembly/gc#510

This test case should fail validation with type mismatch: expression has type (ref any) but expected eqref. FWIW, Firefox, wasmparser, and the reference interpreter all give that validation error, however binaryen incorrectly claims it is valid.

The br_on_cast should be typed [externref eqref] -> [externref (ref any)] because diff(anyref, arrayref) = (ref any), but it seems like binaryen is typing it as an identity function.

(module
  (rec
    (type (;0;) (sub (func (result externref eqref))))
    (type (;1;) (array (mut externref)))
  )
  (import "" "" (global (;0;) (mut f32)))
  (func (;0;) (type 0) (result externref eqref)
    ;; []
    block (type 0) (result externref eqref) ;; label = @1
      ;; []
      block ;; label = @2
        ;; []
        loop (result (ref null 0)) ;; label = @3
          ;; []
          ref.null i31
          ;; [i31ref]
          call 0
          ;; [i31ref externref eqref]
          br 2 (;@1;)
          ;; [i31ref externref eqref]
          global.get 0
          ;; [i31ref externref eqref f32]
          f32.ceil
          ;; [i31ref externref eqref f32]
          call 0
          ;; [i31ref externref eqref f32 externref eqref]
          call 2
          ;; [i31ref externref eqref f32 externref eqref externref eqref]
          br_on_cast 2 (;@1;) anyref arrayref
          ;; [i31ref externref eqref f32 externref eqref externref (ref any)]
          br_on_non_null 3 (;@0;) ;; <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< validation error should be here
          ref.is_null
          nop
          unreachable
        end
        unreachable
      end
      unreachable
    end
  )
  (func (;1;) (type 0) (result externref eqref)
    unreachable
  )
  (func (;2;) (type 0) (result externref eqref)
    unreachable

This is likely due to br_on_* not supporting a sent value in addition to the reference itself, which is a current limitation. No real-world code so far does that AFAIK so it has not been a priority to add (and due to it requiring multivalue it has downsides in our IR).

Separately it is odd that this does not fail to validate on the br_on_cast going to a multivalue block. That suggests we are also missing validation there. We only fuzz valid testcases so that was missed I supposed. Adding that validation should be simple.

FWIW we do report a validation error when parsing this wat directly with --new-wat-parser due to the sent type of br_on_cast not matching the target block type. I assume the original repro was parsed from binary instead; perhaps our binary parser is doing something odd that masks the problem.

@kripken, WDYT about supporting sent values for these branches in the IR if folks are actually trying to use them? Alternatively we could plan to lower them away in the parsers.

br_on_null (the one in #6960) would be easy to support, and we should definitely do that. br_on_cast however would make the target block multivalue, which would be more complicated and get into tradeoffs.
