The comment of this function would need to be updated.

While checking this, I noticed that the `struct value *` parameters of print_field_values
and print_variant_part appear to be unnecessary.  They are only passed recursively, but
never actually used.

But most importantly, I was thinking that this ada_val_print_struct_union function looked
like it was accepting a decomposed struct value, much like the API that you have removed.
Would it work and be good to change it to work more with `struct value`s?  It seems to me
like this bug would have been avoided.
