[Patch, fortran] PR67740 - Wrong association status of allocatable character pointer in derived types

[Paul Richard Thomas]

Hi All,

The title line of the PR should have been changed a long time since. As
noted in comment 5, the original problem was fixed in 10.5.

This patch fixes the problem described in comments 4 and 6, where the
hidden string length component was not being set in pointer assignment of
character arrays.

The fix regtests. OK for trunk and 13-branch?

Thanks are due to Harald for bringing this to my attention.
