Cleanup: Reduce `void *` reliance of new sequencer C++ Outliner elements

Plan is to remove things like `TreeElement.directdata` and to instead
expose specific queries in the new type specific tree-element classes.
e.g. like here: `TreeElementSequence.getSequence()`

For now uses `tree_element_cast<>()` to get the new type specific
tree-element, later these should replace `TreeElement` all together.
