Simple trait for helping along upcasting of dyn supertraits.

```
pub trait A {}
pub trait B: A + Upcast<dyn A> {}

// Put this in your library
impl<'a, T: A + 'a> UpcastFrom<T> for dyn A + 'a {
    fn up_from(value: &T) -> &(dyn A + 'a) { value }
    fn up_from_mut(value: &mut T) -> &mut (dyn A + 'a) { value }
}

// Now your users can do an upcast if needed, or you can within implementations
fn do_cast(b: &dyn B) -> &dyn A {
    b.up()
}
