In C you can have a struct tag and a variable with the same name.  The
-fdump-go-spec option dumps a struct tag as a type name, but Go does not
permit a type and a variable to have the same name.  This patch avoids
the most common case of this problem by not emitting a variable if it
has already seen a type with the same name.  Bootstrapped and ran Go
testsuite on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.  Committed to mainline.

	* godump.c (go_output_var): Don't output the variable if there is
	already a type with the same name.
