-Why are explicit conversions between fixed-size bytes types and integer types failing?

-Since version 0.5.0 explicit conversions between fixed-size byte arrays and integers are only allowed,
-if both types have the same size. This prevents unexpected behaviour when truncating or padding.
-Such conversions are still possible, but intermediate casts are required that make the desired
