[PATCH] [gdb/testsuite] Initialize anonymous union in gdb.cp/koenig.cc

Hi Tom and all,

Please review the gdb test case change for clang to emit the debug info for unused anonymous union variable. This change is to accommodate Tom's review comment for the patch "[PATCH] [gdb/testsuite] Add a clang option to gdb.cp/koenig.exp".

---
GDB test fails while running the test case gdb.cp/koenig.exp using
clang compiler:
[...]
p foo (p_union)
No symbol "p_union" in current context.
(gdb) FAIL: gdb.cp/koenig.exp: p foo (p_union)
[...]

In the testcase, "p_union" is an unused/uninitialized variable of
anonymous union type. Clang does not emit symbol for unused anonymous
union/struct variables at any optimization level. Since the compiler
itself is not emitting the symbol for "p_union", debug info is also
not emitted when built with debug option. If the anonymous union is
initialized (or used), then clang emits the symbol "p_union" which
enables emitting debug info for "p_union".
[...]
p foo (p_union)
Cannot resolve function foo to any overloaded instance
(gdb) PASS: gdb.cp/koenig.exp: p foo (p_union)
[...]
