Reported by Coverity:

  In clang::​ASTContext::​hasUniqueObjectRepresentations(clang::​QualType, bool): Return value of function which returns null is dereferenced without checking.

  (Ty->isMemberPointerType()) {
      	//returned_null: getAs returns nullptr.
      	//var_assigned: Assigning: MPT = nullptr return value from getAs.
      const auto *MPT = Ty->getAs<MemberPointerType>();
      	
     //dereference: Dereferencing a pointer that might be nullptr MPT when calling getMemberPointerInfo. (The virtual call resolves to 
     <unnamed>::ItaniumCXXABI::getMemberPointerInfo.)
      return !ABI->getMemberPointerInfo(MPT).HasPadding;
    }

This patch uses castAs instead of getAs.
