[Ada] Infinite loop in the compiler when warning on redundant constructs

This patch fixes an infinite loop in the compiler when warnings on redundant
constructs are enabled (-gnatwr) and the constructs are use_type clauses
that appear (redundantly) in a parent unit and a child unit.

The following command:

   gcc -c -gnatwr root-child.ads

must yield:

   root-child.ads:2:01: warning: "Pack.Typ" is already use-visible through
   previous use_type_clause at root.ads:2

The following must compile quietly:

   gcc -c -gnatwr root-child-grand.ads

----
package Pack is
  type Typ is new Integer;
end Pack;
----
with Pack;
use type Pack.Typ;
package Root is
  Thing1 : Pack.Typ;
end Root;
----
with pack;
use type pack.typ;
package Root.Child is
  Thing2 : Pack.Typ := Root.Thing1 * 3;
end;
----
with Pack;
use type Pack.Typ;
package Root.Child.Grand is
  Thing3 : Pack.Typ := Thing1 + Thing2;
end;

	* sem_ch8.adb (Analyze_Use_Type): Do not assign the Prev_Use_Clause
	link to a use_type clause if this would cause an infinite loop in the
	machinery that detects redundant use clauses. This may happen when the
	redundant clauses appear in the context of a child unit and the context
	of its parent.
