[Ada] Add gnatname use for multiple units files support
2020-06-08 Philippe Gil <gil@adacore.com> gcc/ada/ * doc/gnat_ugn/the_gnat_compilation_model.rst: in "Handling Files with Multiple Units" part documents gnatname use for unmodified files handling and gnatchop use for files refactoring. * gnat_ugn.texi: Regenerate.
