lint: add test for "suggest cast" [324]

This warning is the only one that calls print_tnode, which in turn uses
the redundant operator names in str_op_t.

There is another list of operator names in ops.c, but those names
include more clutter, for example "p + p" instead of a simple "+".
Using those operator names would therefore rather be confusing. These
two lists should be merged, to remove unnecessary redundancy.
