[Ada] Crash on conversion to derived private type with invisible discriminants

This change fixes the processing of a type conversion to a derived
type with a private non-discriminated ancestor whose full view has a
discriminant with default. Previous compiler versions would crash or produce
a junk error message.

The following compilation must be accepted quietly:
$ gcc -c der.adb

package Pvt is
   type T is private;
private
   type T (D : Integer := 0) is null record;
end Pvt;
with Pvt;
package Der is
   type DT is new Pvt.T;
   function F (X : Pvt.T) return DT;
end Der;
package body Der is
   function F (X : Pvt.T) return DT is
   begin
      return DT (X);
   end F;
end Der;

Tested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, committed on trunk

	the operand type.
