Explanation: While looking at making some changes in ResultPlan.cpp, I noticed
that we were performing:

if (auto *b = cast<BeginBorrowInst>(inst)) {

which is very suspicious since cast<> fails on failure rather than failing like
a dyn_cast would. After reviewing the git history, I discovered that this was
clearly a thinko where dyn_cast was actually meant to be used:

if (auto *b = dyn_cast<BeginBorrowInst>(inst)) {

Scope: Just converts a cast that was meant to be a dyn_cast to actually be a
dyn_cast.

Main PR: #80952

Risk: Low.

Testing: N/A. Correct on sight.

Reviewer: @nate-chandler

We are performing a cast instead of a dyn_cast in an if statement. This will
assert on failure rather than fall through. It seems to be an obvious typo. I
checked in the actual commit in question that introduced it and the intention
was to be a dyn_cast.
