`cast_lossless` not triggered by `char as u32`

Summary

Casting a char to a u32 is lossless, but the cast_lossless lint doesn't cover it.

Lint Name

cast_lossless

Reproducer

I tried this code:

#![deny(clippy::cast_lossless)]

fn main() {
    let _ = '|' as u32;
}

Playground

I expected to see this happen: Compiler error

error: casts from `char` to `u32` can be expressed infallibly using `From`

Instead, this happened:

The code compiled without any issues.
