When substituting an array-valued character parameter variable, the call to
gfc_copy_expr returns character length 1. Fix up the resulting length.
I could not figure out whether this is a bug or a feature of gfc_copy_expr.
But the fix to simplify_parameter_variable would not do any harm in any case.
Regtested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu. OK for mainline, and since this is a
bad code regression, backports down to 8-branch?
Thanks,
Harald

When substituting a parameter variable of type character, the character
length was reset to 1. Fix this by copying the length.
gcc/fortran/ChangeLog:
* expr.c (simplify_parameter_variable): Fix up character length
after copying an array-valued expression.
gcc/testsuite/ChangeLog:
* gfortran.dg/pr98017.f90: New test.
