The removal of the obsolete code path originally implemented for ASIS
has exposed a latent issue for components of discriminated tagged types
in instance bodies: Is_Visible_Component can wrongly return false for
them even though the ancestor type is perfectly visible in the instance.

No functional changes.

Tested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, committed on trunk
