This patch introduces several changes to the new elaboration order
mechanism:

   * Instantiations processed in the context of invocation graph
     encoding now yield a relation which is later transformed into an
     invocation edge. This ensures that the unit where the instantiation
     resides properly depends on the unit where the body of the generic
     is.

   * The diagnostics of cycles that involve invocation edges now use a
     set to avoid infinite recursion when visiting paths that represent
     recursive code.

   * Various diagnostics that suggest the use of switches have been
     updated to indicate which tool the switches apply to.

   * Bindo can now output the dependencies of various units that specify
     why a predecessor unit must be elaborated prior to a successor
     unit. This functionality implements binder switch -e (output
     complete list of elaboration order dependencies).

   * The output of the elaboration order is now identical to that
     emitted by Binde.

   * The nature of the invocation graph encoding is now recorded in the
     ALI record rather than the Unit record of a unit. This ensures that
     both the spec and body share the same encoding kind.

   * A section on debugging elaboration order issues is now available in
     Bindo.

        * ali.adb (For_Each_Invocation_Construct,
        For_Each_Invocation_Relation): New version.
        (Scan_ALI): Initialize field Invocation_Graph_Encoding.
        (Set_Invocation_Graph_Encoding): Update the setting of the
        invocation graph encoding.
        * ali.ads: Move field Invocation_Graph_Encoding from Unit_Record
        to ALI_Record because the encoding applies to the whole ALI,
        rather than one of the units (spec or body) for which the ALI
        file was created.
        (For_Each_Invocation_Construct, For_Each_Invocation_Relation):
        New version.
        * bindo.adb: Update the section on switches.  Complete the
        section of debugging elaboration order issues.
        (Find_Elaboration_Order): Prepare the routine for the switch
        from the old to the new elaboration order mechanism.
        * bindo-diagnostics.adb (Find_And_Output_Invocation_Paths):
        Manage a visited set used by Visit_Vertex.
        (Output_All_Cycles_Suggestions,
        Output_Dynamic_Model_Suggestions): Clarify the nature of the
        suggested switch.
        (Output_Elaborate_Body_Transition): Update the diagnostic to
        emit a better message.
        (Output_Forced_Suggestions, Output_Full_Encoding_Suggestions):
        Clarify the nature of the suggested switch.
        (Visit_Vertex): Update the parameter profile to add a set of
        invokers visited during the transition. This set prevents
        infinite exploration of the graph in case the invocations are
        recursive.
        * bindo-elaborators.adb: Add a use clause for
        Bindo.Writers.Dependency_Writers.
        (Elaborate_Units_Common): Output the library graph after it has
        been augmented with invocation edges. Output just the components
        instead of outputting the whole library graph again.
        (Elaborate_Units_Dynamic, Elaborate_Units_Static): Output the
        dependencies as expressed in the library graph.
        * bindo-units.adb (Invocation_Graph_Encoding): Update the
        extraction of the invocation graph encoding.
        * bindo-writers.adb: Add with and use clauses for Binderr and
        Butil.
        (palgc, plgc): New debug routine.
        (Write_Components): Moved to the spec. Add a header for the
        output.
        (Write_Dependencies, Write_Dependencies_Of_Vertex,
        Write_Dependency_Edge): New routine.
        (Write_Elaboration_Order): Update the logic to follow the format
        of Binde's order output.
        (Write_Library_Graph): Do not output the components every time
        the graph is written.
        (Write_Unit): Output the invocation graph encoding of the unit.
        Output the invocation constructs and relations for the unit
        only.
        * bindo-writers.ads (Write_Components): Moved from the body.
        (Write_Dependencies): New routine.
        * bindusg.adb: Prepare the routine for the switch from the old
        to the new elaboration order mechanism.
        * debug.adb: Binder switch -d_O is now not associated with any
        functionality.
        * einfo.adb (Is_Elaboration_Target): The attribute applies to
        packages, as specified by the comment on the attribute usage.
        * opt.ads: Add a global flag which controls the choice between
        the new and the legacy elaboration order mechanism.
        * sem_elab.adb: Add Package_Target to type Target_Kind.
        (Build_Elaborate_Body_Procedure, Build_Elaborate_Procedure,
        Build_Elaborate_Spec_Procedure, Check_Elaboration_Scenarios,
        Check_SPARK_Model_In_Effect): Use Main_Unit_Entity to obtain the
        entity of the main unit.
        (Create_Package_Rep): New routine.
        (Create_Target_Rep): Add processing for packages.
        (Declaration_Placement_Of_Node, Has_Prior_Elaboration): Use
        Main_Unit_Entity to obtain the entity of the main
         unit.
        (Invocation_Graph_Recording_OK): Prepare the routine for the
        switch from the old to the new elaboration order mechanism.
        (Main_Unit_Entity): New routine.
        (Meet_Elaboration_Requirement,
        Process_Conditional_ABE_Variable_Reference): Use
        Main_Unit_Entity to obtain the entity of the main unit.
        (Process_Invocation_Instantiation): New routine.
        (Process_Invocation_Scenario): Add processing for
        instantiations.
        * switch-b.adb (Scan_Binder_Switches): Prepare the routine for
        the switch from the old to the new elaboration order mechanism.
