[WWW] Updating GCC Links and Selected Readings

Hi, I've noticed that the Ada section of the following web page is
somewhat outdated:

  http://gcc.gnu.org/readings.html

For example, Ada Core Technologies is now named AdaCore, and there is
much more recent version of the book describing the internals of the
run-time by the same author (also describing the compiler internals).
I also propose adding the following list of links to the Ada
standandards and other useful documents for compiler writers.

Cheers,

Thanks for taking the time to update this, Santiago!

Let me ask our Ada maintainers to have a look as well, since this is not
exactly my area of expertise.  Geert/Robert/Arnaud, I'll be happy to apply
that patch and make some tweaks based on your review.

Thanks for the review, Arnaud, and thanks again for the patch, Santiago!

I committed this with minor formatting changes and fixed some markup 
issues directly afterwards.
