As you can see from the typescript above, implicit casts are where they
are expected, but AST is without CXXConstructExpr and implicit cast when
initialized type is a class.

$ cat t.c

int v[3] = {1,2,3.0};
$ clang -cc1 -ast-dump t.c
typedef char *__builtin_va_list;
int v[3] = (InitListExpr 0xaed1f90 <t.c:2:12, col:20> 'int [3]'
  (IntegerLiteral 0xaed1ef0 <col:13> 'int' 1)
  (IntegerLiteral 0xaed1f10 <col:15> 'int' 2)
  (ImplicitCastExpr 0xaed1fd0 <col:17> 'int' <FloatingToIntegral>
    (FloatingLiteral 0xaed1f30 <col:17> 'double' 3.000000e+00)))
;
