When we pass an unconstrained value in an activation record, we pass it
an access type instead of an address so that we can get the bounds in
the nested subprogram.  However, the current code does this only when
the uplevel reference is a parameter and uses 'Access.  There are cases,
as introduced in the fix for C760A02, involving a renaming, where an
object is an unconstrained array type, but not a parameter.  Moreover,
we should use 'Unchecked_Access to avoid error messages in that case.

Tested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, committed on trunk

gcc/ada/

	* exp_unst.adb (Needs_Fat_Pointer): Don't check for formal.
	(Unnest_Subprogram): Use 'Unchecked_Access instead of 'Access
	when populating activation record.
