  The cooked index work changed how .gdb_index is constructed, and in
the process broke .gdb_index support.  This is PR symtab/29179.

This patch partially fixes the problem.  It arranges for Ada names to
be encoded in the form expected by the index code.  In particular,
linkage names for Ada are emitted, including the "main" name; names
are Ada-encoded; and names are no longer case-folded, something that
prevented operator names from round-tripping correctly.
