Ian Lance Taylor da769814b8 cmd/cgo: handle GCC 8 change in errors about constant initializers
Before GCC 8 C code like

const unsigned long long int neg = (const unsigned long long) -1;
void f(void) { static const double x = (neg); }

would get an error "initializer element is not constant". In GCC 8 and
later it does not.

Because a value like neg, above, can not be used as a general integer
constant, this causes cgo to conclude that it is a floating point
constant. The way that cgo handles floating point values then causes
it to get the wrong value for it: 18446744073709551615 rather than -1.
These are of course the same value when converted to int64, but Go
does not permit that kind of conversion for an out-of-range constant.

This CL side-steps the problem by treating floating point constants
with integer type as they would up being treated before GCC 8: as
variables rather than constants.

Fixes #26066
