Compiler fails to reject an Others_Clause in an aggregate for a
constrained array type when previous components of the aggregate cover
the full index range of the array subtype, and the expression in the
Others_Clause has a type incompatible with the component type of the
array. The Others_Clause does not generate any code but the construct is
illegal. The error was previously reported only in -gnatc mode.

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

gcc/ada/

	* exp_aggr.adb (Expand_Array_Aggregate): If the expression in an
	Others_Clause has not been analyzed because previous analysis of
	the enclosing aggregate showed the clause to be ineffective i.e.
	cover a null range, analyze it now to detect a possible type
	illegality.
