[Ada] Fix continuation message without a prior error
When resolution of an expanded name fails, we call routine Error_Missing_With_Of_Known_Unit which emits an error continuation message (i.e. an error string starting with \\). However, for error continuations to work properly there must be some prior error, because continuation itself doesn't set flags like Serious_Errors_Detected. Without these flags the problematic statement is not marked with Error_Posted, which in turn is needed to prevent cascaded errors. In particular, when unresolved procedure call uses a direct name or an extended name with an unknown prefix, e.g.: Unknown (1, 2, 3); Unknown.Call (1, 2, 3); then the N_Procedure_Call statements are marked with Error_Posted. But when a call uses an extended name with a known prefix we failed to flag the N_Procedure_Call with Error_Posted. Found while improving the robustness of a feature that detects uninitialized scalar objects. gcc/ada/ * sem_ch8.adb (Find_Expanded_Name): Emit a main error message before adding a continuation with the call to Error_Missing_With_Of_Known_Unit.
