Four fixes I found while converting NFSD's NFS_ACLv3 XDR encoders
and decoders to use xdrgen.

Chuck Lever (4):
  xdrgen: Handle a union whose arms are all void
  xdrgen: Key the width tables by type name only
  xdrgen: Register optional-data names only for typedefs
  xdrgen: Take a union's numeric discriminant width from the declaration

_XdrUnion.symbolic_width() assigns its result variable only when
an arm's width exceeds the running maximum, and the maximum starts
at zero. A union whose arms are all void has no such arm, so the
return statement reads a variable that was never bound. The
definitions command then reports "cannot access local variable
'width'" and exits without generating the header. The sibling
max_width() method starts from zero and handles the same union.

Start the symbolic width from an empty list, so an all-void union
reports just the width of its discriminant.

Every declaration class registers its width in max_widths and
symbolic_widths under its own name, and a declaration's name is the
field name when it appears inside a struct or a union. Those tables
are otherwise keyed by type name, so a field named after a type
overwrites that type's entry. In nfs_acl2.x, "unsigned int uid" in
struct fattr replaces the entry for the "uid" typedef, and the
generated NFS_ACL2_aclent_sz sizes the aclent id as XDR_unsigned_int
rather than NFS_ACL2_uid_sz. In nfs3.x, the "time_how set_it"
discriminant of set_atime replaces the entry a "bool set_it"
discriminant registered, so the generated set_mode3, set_uid3,
set_gid3, and set_size3 size macros count a time_how in place of a
bool. The macros evaluate to the right value only because the
colliding types happen to share a width.

Register a declaration's width under its name only when the
declaration is a typedef, where the name is the new type's name, and
compute a union discriminant's width from the discriminant itself
rather than looking it up by name. Regenerate the affected headers;
only size macros change.

_XdrOptionalData adds its name to structs and to pass_by_reference
when it is constructed, and that name is the field name when the
declaration is a member of a struct or a union. Both sets are
otherwise keyed by type name: _XdrDefinedType consults structs to
emit a "struct" classifier, and the encoder templates consult
pass_by_reference to pass an argument by address. A field named
after a scalar typedef turns every later reference to that typedef
into a struct passed by reference, and the generated C does not
compile. No in-tree .x file declares such a field, so the generated
headers do not change.

Add the name only when the optional-data declaration is a typedef,
beside the width registration in _XdrTypedef.

_XdrUnion.max_width() counts the discriminant as one XDR word, while
symbolic_width() takes the discriminant's width from the discriminant
declaration. For a hyper discriminant, or a typedef of one, the _sz
macro therefore emits two words where the numeric width counts one.
program.py compares the numeric widths of each procedure's argument
type to choose the type that the *_MAX_ARGS_SZ macro expands to, so a
union argument with a wide discriminant can lose that comparison to a
narrower type. RFC 4506 restricts the discriminant to int, unsigned
int, bool, and enum, and every in-tree .x file complies, so the
generated headers do not change.

Take the numeric discriminant width from the discriminant declaration
as well, so the two methods agree by construction.
