[LV] Add analysis remark for mixed precision conversions

Floating point conversions inside vectorized loops have performance
implications but are very subtle. The user could specify a floating
point constant, or call a function without realizing that it will
force a change in the vector width. An example of this behaviour is
seen in https://godbolt.org/z/M3nT6c . The vectorizer should indicate
when this happens becuase it is most likely unintended behaviour.

This patch adds a simple check for this behaviour by following floating
point stores in the original loop and checking if a floating point
conversion operation occurs.
