[Ada] Implicit dereference when type is an access_to_subprogram.

If the return type of the function is an access_to_subprogram and the context
type is not, this is a parameterless call that is the prefix of the actual
call. In an instance, the return type may appear simply as an access_subtype
if it is an actual, and the base type must be used to recognize this case.

* sem_res.adb (Resolve_Call): Use base type to determine whether a
dereference is needed because a subtype of an access_to_subprogram is
simply an access-subtype
