ada: Refer to non-Ada binding limitations in user guide
The limitation of resetting the FPU mode for non 80-bit precision was not referenced from "Creating a Stand-alone Library to be used in a non-Ada context". Reference it the same way it is already referenced from "Interfacing to C". gcc/ada/ * doc/gnat_ugn/the_gnat_compilation_model.rst: Reference "Binding with Non-Ada Main Programs" from "Creating a Stand-alone Library to be used in a non-Ada context". * gnat_ugn.texi: Regenerate.
