This patch to the Go frontend avoids padding zero-sized trailing
fields in the struct created to hold result parameters.  This avoids a
miscompilation when a function returns multiple results and the last
result is zero-sized (this is not a useful way to write a function but
it can happen reasonably if on some targets the last result does have
a size).  Nothing can take the address of a field in a result struct,
so the padding is not required.  This fixes GCC PR 101994.
Bootstrapped and ran Go testsuite on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu.  Committed
to mainline.
