[Bug c/44384] New: builtin_object_size_ treatment of multidimensional arrays is unexpected

["meklund at cisco dot com" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

Instead of treating each dimension of the array as a separate subobject, BOSC
treats them all as a single subobject which results in unexpected size
calculations.  For example, the below code compiled with '-O2' in gcc 4.5.0
gives the following results with expect results listed after.

        char c[10][20];

        __builtin_object_size(c, 3);        /* returns 200, expected 200*/
        __builtin_object_size(c[0], 3);     /* returns 200, expected 20 */
        __builtin_object_size(c[1], 3);     /* returns 180, expected 20 */
        __builtin_object_size(c[2], 3);     /* returns 160, expected 20 */
        __builtin_object_size(c[8], 3);     /* returns 40,  expected 20 */
        __builtin_object_size(c[9], 3);     /* returns 20,  expected 20 */
