Subject: [PATCH 1/2] [flang] Do not branch to a FORMAT statement from an
 assigned GO TO

Label analysis already classifies which labeled statements may be named by
a statement that branches.  Record the positions of those statements in the
semantics context and consult it when lowering records the targets of an
assigned GO TO, so that a FORMAT statement is not given a target block.

A GO TO whose variable holds only a format label now reaches the run-time
error instead of branching into the FORMAT statement.

The label analysis is built once and shared: AnalyzeLabels() runs the
constraint checks first and records the branch targets only if they pass,
since a program with fatal errors is not lowered.
