[Ada] gigi fixes


Tested on i686-linux, committed on trunk.

PR ada/27776.
This is a reimplementation of Gigi support for the Ada 2005 "limited with".
This implementation has Gigi more closely match the Ada semantics in the
handling of when types are to be treated as incomplete.  When using that
feature in Ada 2005, it is possible for a type in the main unit to be "demand
elaborated" just like a type in a withed unit and that confuses the current
code.  This change adds checks to see if a "demand elaborated" entity is
actually in the current unit and has a freeze node and handles it in a manner
consistent with all other incomplete types if it is.


Fix also some glitches in the generation of debug info for Ada constructs,
in particular when creating an Ada Character or Wide_Character type, set the
TYPE_NAME accordingly. This is used by the dwarf-2 writer to set the name of the
base type.
This patch allows the debuggers to know the name of the base character types
(and fixes the command "ptype character" in gdb, for instance).
Similarly, use TYPE_STRING_FLAG to differentiate trees representing Ada
Character types from standard Integer types.
This allows debuggers to know the types of Ada Characters by reading
standard dwarf-2, instead of having to rely on the names of the types.
Fills also a gap in the writing of debug information, which
caused all global Ada declarations to be absent from the debug information.


For a pointer-to-protected-subprogram type, there is an additional hurdle:
its elaboration involves elaborating an associated record type that holds
pointers to the operation and to the protected object.  This type can be
elaborated on its first occurence but its potentially multiple elaboration
must be account for in Gigi.

The testcase gnat.dg/pointer_protected must silently compile.


Functions modelled on the Standard C library function "malloc" are treated
specially by the compiler, in particular by the alias analysis engine which
assumes that the objects pointed to by the returned pointers cannot alias.

This makes it possible to conduct accurate point-to alias analysis for objects
allocated on the heap, disregarding type aliasing violation.
gnat.dg/gnat_malloc.adb should compile and run silently at -O2

The patch converts the global lists static_ctors and static_dtors to vector
of trees and moves the calls to build_global_cdtor to the newly added hook
gnat_write_global_declarations.  It also moves the call to cgraph_optimize
from gnat_parse_file to the new hook.

Both changes are modelled on the C front-end.  They make it possible to keep
the constructor/destructor stuff private to utils.c and give a more accurate
timing for the parsing phase.


When gigi processes an explicit freeze node for an entity, it asserts
that the entity has not been elaborated already on the grounds that the
freeze node was supposed to delay the elaboration until it's occurrence
point. Exceptions to this general rule are accepted for cases in which
it is known that such early elaborations might legitimately happen.

gnat.dg/task_name.ad{s,b} exposes a situation where early elaboration is
legitimate but not anticipated by gigi, triggering a spurious assertion failure
at compile time.

The specific factors here are
   1/ the presence of a freeze node triggering the elaboration of the
   Task_Object type, a Concurrent_Type node, followed by a freeze node for
   the attached internal Corresponding_Record_Type entity,
and
   2/ the fact that the Concurrent_Type elaboration entails the elaboration
   of the internal Corresponding_Record_Type node.

Gigi aborts while processing the second freeze node, because the entity
has been elaborated already, as part of the processing of the first freeze
node. The fix applied consists of extending the set of legitimate early
elaboration cases expected by gigi in the freeze node processing code, to
cover exactly the situation exposed here.


When a view conversion is used as the actual for a copy-in/copy-out parameter,
the real destination of the copy-out is the variable denoted by the conversion
argument. The type of this real destination is different from the procedure
output type, so the output has to be converted to the destination type and
the GCC node representing the copy-out lhs needs to be properly typed as well.

The GCC node used as the copy-out lhs is retrieved from a list of actuals
constructed for the call. For view conversion arguments of non composite
types, the GCC actual node corresponds to the GNAT conversion node and
was reused as-is for the copy-out assignment.  In addition to the type being
incorrect, a spurious conversion operation remained on the assignment lhs,
triggering gimplification failures (invalid lvalue) if the conversion happened
not to be considered useless.

The fix applied here is to convert the gnu node for the lhs to the inner
expression type when need be, which actually lifts the outer conversion op
introduced for the copy-in.

See gnat.dg/ice_type.adb test case.


While the alignment is counted in bits in the middle-end, it is counted
in bytes (storage units) in the Ada front-end.  The conversion is done
in Gigi correctly for types, but not for components of records.

gnat.dg/alignment1.adb should run silently


The gimplifier marks memory operands of inline asms as
addressable.  Now it is too late to simply do that in the gimplifier because
gimplification of earlier expressions might have had a different outcome,
had the addressability flag been set on a variable.  In particular, loads from
memory variables are made explicit so is_gimple_val may suddenly become false
as the result of toggling the addressability flag.

The fix is to toggle the addressability flag in Gigi, as the C and C++
compilers do in their respective front-end, using support code from stmt.c.

gnat.dg/machine_code1.adb should now flawlessly compile.


When an abstract function that is a tagged primitive has an anonymous access
result type, then dispatching calls to the function cause Gigi abort 122
because the itype associated with the result of the indirect call has not
been elaborated by Gigi. We now process such itypes when the abstract function
declaration is translated.

gnat.dg/abstract_with_anonymous_result.adb must compile and execute quietly


Finally, with a subtype like this:

   type T is (a, b, c, d, e);
   S is T range b .. d;
   subtype S1 is S range a .. d;

S1 has a low bound out of range. The translation of this code by gigi is
the creation of a variable for the lower bound of S1. Therefore, when we
use S1 in a "when" of a case statement, we insert a variable in the list
of cased values. Unfortunately, gcc 4.1 gimplifier requires now to have
only null or integer constant nodes there, and crash when it reads the
variable. This patch removes the whole "when" block when its only choice is
wrong, or removes only the problematic choice if there are other valid ones.
