chore: enable forcetypeassert linter, fix issues (#38804)

Enable [`forcetypeassert`](https://github.com/gostaticanalysis/forcetypeassert)
linter to prevent unchecked type assertions. ~650 issues fixed, most
fixes were clean, some use `setting.PanicInDevOrTesting`.

The only behaviour changes are where code would previously send a 500 error
or panic, a 4xx error is now emitted.
