In Ada we simply don't want to emit raw type sizes in the GIMPLE IR, they are 
just too heavy to be manipulated up to there, even for moderately complex 
code.  That's why we need them to be folded as soon as possible, and even 
factored out of the GENERIC IR into functions when they are self-referential.
