Go patch committed: Don't initialize zero-sized fields in constructors

This patch by Chris Manghane skips initializing zero-sized fields in
constructor expressions.  Initializing them tends to lead into GIMPLE
errors when using map composite literals.  Note that zero-sized fields
are useful in maps, but of course the compiler should not crash.  This
is http://golang.org/issue/9406 .  Bootstrapped and ran Go testsuite
on x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.  Committed to mainline.

* go-gcc.cc (constructor_expression): Don't initialize zero-sized
fields, just evaluate the values for side effects.
