The whole question of the relationship of those types really needs to be
looked at more carefull
The TODO list contains some items concerning the CIDR/INET datatype.
* %Prevent INET cast to CIDR if the unmasked bits are not zero, or
zero the bits
I added a function for this cast (which zeroes the bits) but then the
opr_sanity regression test failed because there is a cast from INET -> CIDR
