[Ada] Ada/C++ missing call to allocation of C++ object with defaults

When the type of an object is a CPP untagged type, the object is allocated
in memory through the "new" construct, and the object initialization
requires calling its C++ constructor passing defaults, the Ada compiler
did not generate the call to a C++ constructor which has all parameters with
defaults (and hence it covers the default C++ constructor). The following
test now executes well.

// c_class.h
class Tester {
  public:
    Tester(unsigned int a_num = 5, char* a_className = 0);
};

// c_class.cc

#include "c_class.h"
#include <iostream>

Tester::Tester(unsigned int a_num, char* a_className) {
  std::cout << " ctor Tester called " << a_num << ":";

  if (a_className == 0) {
     std::cout << "null";
  } else {
     std::cout << a_className;
  }

  std::cout << std::endl;
}

-- c_class_h.ads
with Interfaces.C; use Interfaces.C;
with Interfaces.C.Strings;

package c_class_h is
   package Class_Tester is
      type Tester is limited record
         null;
      end record;
      pragma Import (CPP, Tester);

      function New_Tester
        (a_num : unsigned := 5;
         a_className : Interfaces.C.Strings.chars_ptr
                         := Interfaces.C.Strings.Null_Ptr)
         return Tester;  -- c_class.h:3
      pragma CPP_Constructor (New_Tester, "_ZN6TesterC1EjPc");
   end;
   use Class_Tester;
end c_class_h;

Output:

	* exp_ch4.adb (Expand_N_Allocator_Expression): Minor code
	reorganization and cleanup. Done to ensure proper management of
	the C++ constructor covering tagged and untagged types and also
	non-default constructors.
	* exp_ch6.ads, exp_ch6.adb (Make_CPP_Constructor_Call_In_Allocator):
	New subprogram.
