Tom Tromey db2534b704 Fix Ada overloading with 'null'
Currently, the Ada expression parser treats 'null' as an integer 0.
However, this causes overloading to fail in certain cases.

This patch changes the Ada expression parser to use a special type for
'null'.  I chose pointer-to-int0, because I think that's not likely to
be needed for any other Ada expression.  Note this works because a
"mod 1" type has an underlying non-zero byte size; the test includes a
check for this.

The output is changed so that "print null", by default, shows "null".
And, ada_type_match is changed both to recognize the special null type
and to remove a bit of weird code related to how pointers are treated
for overload type matching.

Tested on x86-64 Fedora 32.  Because this only touches Ada, and Joel
already approved it internally at AdaCore, I am checking it in.
