(Ada) crash assigning to record component which is an array

Consider the following code, which declares a variabled called "input"
of type "parameter", which is a record with one component called "u2",
where the type of that component is a simple 3-element array of
floating point values:

   type Float_Array_3 is array (1 .. 3) of Float;
   type parameters is record
      u2 : Float_Array_3;
   end record;
   input : parameters;

Trying to assign a value to input.u2 causes GDB to crash:

    (gdb) p input.u2 := (0.25,0.5,0.75)
    [1]    20228 segmentation fault (core dumped) [...]/gdb

The crash occurs because input.u2 is described in the debugging
info as a typedef of an array. Indeed, input's type is:

 <1><ae9>: Abbrev Number: 7 (DW_TAG_structure_type)
    <aea>   DW_AT_name        : (indirect string, offset: 0x1045): target_wrapper__parameters
    [...]
 <2><af5>: Abbrev Number: 8 (DW_TAG_member)
    <af6>   DW_AT_name        : u2
    [...]
    <afb>   DW_AT_type        : <0xaca>

and, looking at DIE 0xaca to get input.u2's type, we see:

 <1><aca>: Abbrev Number: 4 (DW_TAG_typedef)
    <acb>   DW_AT_name        : (indirect string, offset: 0x1060): target_wrapper__float_array_3
    [...]
    <ad1>   DW_AT_type        : <0xad5>

We can also confirm, following the DW_AT_type attribute (0xad5), that
it's a typedef of our array:

 <1><ad5>: Abbrev Number: 5 (DW_TAG_array_type)
    <ad6>   DW_AT_name        : (indirect string, offset: 0x1060): target_wrapper__float_array_3
    [...]

In fact, this scenario uncovered 2 areas where typedef handling
is missing, thus causing a crash. The first happens inside
assign_aggregate:

   if (ada_is_direct_array_type (lhs_type))
     {
       lhs = ada_coerce_to_simple_array (lhs);
       lhs_type = value_type (lhs);
       low_index = TYPE_ARRAY_LOWER_BOUND_VALUE (lhs_type);
       high_index = TYPE_ARRAY_UPPER_BOUND_VALUE (lhs_type);
     }

Here, lhs_type is a TYPE_CODE_TYPEDEF. ada_is_direct_array_type
knows how to handle it, but TYPE_ARRAY_LOWER_BOUND_VALUE assumes
that the given type is a TYPE_CODE_ARRAY. As such, it ends up
accessing some fields in lhs_type which it shouldn't, and kaboom.

We fixed this issue by making sure that the TYPE_CODE_TYPEDEF
layer gets stripped.

Once this is done, we hit a different kind of error, also leading to
a SEGV, this time in assign_component. The code looks like this:

  if (TYPE_CODE (value_type (lhs)) == TYPE_CODE_ARRAY)
    [...]
  else
    [...]

Because once again lhs is a TYPE_CODE_TYPEDEF, the check fail,
and we end up assuming that lhs is a struct, executing the "else"
block, which is:

  else
    {
      elt = ada_index_struct_field (index, lhs, 0, value_type (lhs));
      elt = ada_to_fixed_value (elt);
    }

Since lhs is not a struct, ada_index_struct_field returns NULL,
which ada_to_fixed_value does not handle well, hence another crash.

This patch fixes this other issue the same way, by stripping
TYPE_CODE_TYPEDEF layers.

gdb/ChangeLog:

        * ada-lang.c (assign_component): Strip any TYPE_CODE_TYPEDEF
        layer from lhs' type.
        (assign_aggregate): Likewise.

gdb/testsuite:

        * gdb.ada/assign_arr: New testcase.

Tested on x86_64-linux.
