jade e34833c025 tree-wide: fix a pile of lints
This:
- Converts a bunch of C style casts into C++ casts.
- Removes some very silly pointer subtraction code (which is no more or
  less busted on i686 than it began)
- Fixes some "technically UB" that never had to be UB in the first
  place.
- Makes finally follow the noexcept status of the inner function. Maybe
  in the future we should ban the function from not being noexcept, but
  that is not today.
- Makes various locally-used exceptions inherit from std::exception.
