[Ada] Don't fail a front-end assertion if errors have already been detected

In sem_eval.adb, we have an assertion that the type of a "null" literal
is an access type. It turns out that this assertion can fail when
processing an illegal program, e.g. one that contains something like
"Integer'(null)".  This leads to differences in the compiler's generated
output for such tests depending on whether assertions are/aren't
enabled; in particular, the "compilation abandoned due to previous
error" message generated in Comperr.Compiler_Abort. In order to avoid
these differences, we change the assertion so that it does not fail if
errors have already been posted on the given node.

	* sem_eval.adb (Expr_Value): Do not fail "the type of a null
	literal must be an access type" assertion if errors have already
