Bug 27236 - Pointer comparison wrongly fails because of typedef change

Support we have a type struct S and a type T defined as:
  typedef struct S T;

Today, Libabigail considers that the two pointers "struct S*" and "T*"
are different.

The problem is that this can cause spurious change reports (as
reported by (abidw --abidiff) in binaries where we have the same type
defined more than once, each time using a different various around
this theme.

This patch make libabigail to now consider that "struct S*" and "T*"
are equal.  It does the same for references and arrays.

	 * src/abg-ir.cc (equals): In the overloads for pointer_type_def,
	reference_type_def and array_type_def, compare the pointed-to-type
	modulo typedefs.
	* tests/data/test-diff-dwarf/test42-PR21296-clanggcc-report0.txt: Adjust.
	* tests/data/test-diff-pkg/libICE-1.0.6-1.el6.x86_64.rpm--libICE-1.0.9-2.el7.x86_64.rpm-report-0.txt:

	* tests/data/test-diff-pkg/spice-server-0.12.4-19.el7.x86_64-0.12.8-1.el7.x86_64-report-2.txt:
	Adjust.
