style-guide: Expand documentation on as casts (mostly like a binary…

… operator)

`as` casts currently get formatted like a binary operator, except that
the second line can stack several `as` casts rather than breaking them
each onto their own line. Merge `as` into a subsection of the binary
operators section, and then go into detail on the one difference between
`as` formatting and binary operator formatting.

+### Casts (`as`)
+
+Format `as` casts like a binary operator. In particular, always include spaces
+around `as`, and if line-breaking, break before the `as` (never after) and
+block-indent the subsequent line. Format the type on the right-hand side using
+the rules for types.
+
+However, unlike with other binary operators, if chaining a series of `as` casts
+that require line-breaking, and line-breaking before the first `as` suffices to
+make the remainder fit on the next line, don't break before any subsequent
+`as`; instead, leave the series of types all on the same line:
+
+```rust
+let cstr = very_long_expression()
+    as *const str as *const [u8] as *const std::os::raw::c_char;
+```
+
+If the subsequent line still requires line-breaking, break and block-indent
+before each `as` as with other binary operators.

 ## Control flow
 
 Do not include extraneous parentheses for `if` and `while` expressions.
