Yes, i do expect that we are paying for 2 bytes in padding already.

I'll make it a pointer and replace `BasePathSizeTy BasePathSize() const` with `path_size()`.
I don't really think it would be good to get rid of this pointer/reference, since then
we'd have more than one function doing what `CastExpr::BasePathSizeTy *CastExpr::BasePathSize()` does now.
