[COMMITTED] ada: Dimensional analysis when used with elementary functions

["Marc Poulhiès" <poulhies@adacore.com>]

From: Derek Schacht <schacht@adacore.com>

gcc/ada/

	* doc/gnat_ugn/gnat_and_program_execution.rst: Add more details on
	using Generic Elementary Functions with dimensional analysis.
	* gnat_ugn.texi: Regenerate.

Tested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, committed on master.
