[Ada] Reject 'Valid_Scalars on Unchecked_Union regardless of privacy
Commit Message
Attribute Valid_Scalars applied to prefix with an unchecked union
component causes a legitimate crash in the backend. It was already
rejected in the frontend for prefixes of a public type; now it is
rejected in the frontend regardless of the type privacy.
Tested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, committed on trunk
gcc/ada/
* sem_attr.adb (Analyze_Attribute [Valid_Scalars]): Move check for
unchecked union before checks for private and public types.
