[C++ Patch] PR 54501

Hi,

for this kind of code, using the GNU zero-size array extension:

   int a[][0] = {0};

we end up looping forever in the reshape_init_array_1 loop because it 
calls reshape_init_r -> reshape_init_array -> reshape_init_array_1 which 
returns early a CONSTRUCTOR with no error. Having considered various 
solutions, I'm proposing to break the endless loop in 
reshape_init_array, where we have information about the type of the 
zero-size array and we can easily provide an accurate error message.

Tested x86_64-linux.

Thanks,
Paolo.
