Untested fix.  On array23.C testcase, we have Foo as main variant of Foo2 and
we have:
t: const Foo2 []
c: const Foo []
m: Foo []
and in that case we want to change c's TYPE_MAIN_VARIANT to m.  On this new
testcase we have char as TYPE_MAIN_VARIANT of gchar, and have:
t: const gchar *const []
c: const char *const []
m: const gchar * []
and trying to change TYPE_MAIN_VARIANT of c in that case (whose
TYPE_MAIN_VARIANT is const char * [] at that point) is fatal.  I believe the
important difference between the two is that in array23.C TYPE_MAIN_VARIANT
(TREE_TYPE (c)) is the same as TREE_TYPE (m) (aka TYPE_MAIN_VARIANT
(elt_type)),
but on this PR it is different and as the element type's of c vs. m + t aren't
variants of the same type, neither should the array types be variants of one
another.
