This fixes a spurious invalid variable in specification expression error.
The error was caused on the testcase from the PR by two different bugs.
First, the call to is_parent_of_current_ns was unable to recognize
correct host association and returned false.  Second, an ad-hoc
condition coming next was using a global variable previously improperly
restored to false (instead of restoring it to its initial value).  The
latter happened on the testcase because one dummy argument was a procedure,
and checking that argument what causing a check of all its arguments with
the (improper) reset of the flag at the end, and that preceded the check of
the next argument.

For the first bug, the wrong result of is_parent_of_current_ns is fixed by
correcting the namespaces that function deals with, both the one passed
as argument and the current one tracked in the gfc_current_ns global.  Two
new functions are introduced to select the right namespace.

Regarding the second bug, the problematic condition is removed, together
with the formal_arg_flag associated with it.  Indeed, that condition was
(wrongly) allowing local variables to be used in array bounds of dummy
arguments.

	PR fortran/111781

gcc/fortran/ChangeLog:

	* symbol.cc (gfc_get_procedure_ns, gfc_get_spec_ns): New functions.
	* gfortran.h (gfc_get_procedure_ns, gfc_get_spec ns): Declare them.
	(gfc_is_formal_arg): Remove.
	* expr.cc (check_restricted): Remove special case allowing local
	variable in dummy argument bound expressions.  Use gfc_get_spec_ns
	to get the right namespace.
	* resolve.cc (gfc_is_formal_arg, formal_arg_flag): Remove.
	(gfc_resolve_formal_arglist): Set gfc_current_ns.  Quit loop and
	restore gfc_current_ns instead of early returning.
	(resolve_symbol): Factor common array spec resolution code to...
	(resolve_symbol_array_spec): ... this new function.  Additionnally
	set and restore gfc_current_ns.

gcc/testsuite/ChangeLog:

	* gfortran.dg/spec_expr_8.f90: New test.
	* gfortran.dg/spec_expr_9.f90: New test.

Hi Mikael,

This is very good. I am pleased to see global variables disappear and I
like the new helper functions.

As before, OK for mainline and, if you wish, 13-branch.

Thanks

Paul
