Eric Milles resolved GROOVY-10359.
----------------------------------
Fix Version/s: 5.0.0-alpha-10
Resolution: Fixed
https://github.com/apache/groovy/commit/95e4dbfbeaf0f6bb59222a596c4b5408aacc6d51
It seems most in keeping with the current separation between char and numbers
to prevent number to char assignment rather than open up char as another number
type in STC.
> STC misses type error when involving a variable with a char a declared type
