[Ada] Improve expected type error messages
This patch improves error messages concerning type mismatches by
printing the actual expected type in more cases instead of the expected
type's first subtype.
gcc/ada/
* sem_util.adb (Wrong_Type): Avoid using the first subtype of
the expected type in error messages when the expected type is
not internally generated.
