fortran: Fix double free in ASSOCIATE over allocatable char function
[PR125782]
When an ASSOCIATE selector is a function call returning an allocatable
deferred-length character, trans_associate_var unconditionally added an
extra free of the associate-name's backend decl. That free was added in
2017 (PR60458/77296) to release the result of a POINTER-valued character
function, which is not otherwise freed. For an ALLOCATABLE-valued
character function, however, the result temporary is already freed by the
procedure call's own cleanup code, and the associate name aliases that
same temporary, so the extra free caused a double free at the end of the
ASSOCIATE block.
Restrict the extra free to POINTER-valued function results, where it is
still needed.

gcc/fortran/ChangeLog:
* trans-stmt.cc (trans_associate_var): Only free the associate
name's backend decl for a deferred-length character function
result when the result is a POINTER, not when it is
ALLOCATABLE, since the latter is already freed by the
procedure call's cleanup.
gcc/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gfortran.dg/associate_82.f90: New test.
