fix PR 17106

This fixes PR 17106, a regression in printing.

The bug is that resolve_dynamic_type follows struct members and
references, but doesn't consider the possibility of infinite
recursion.

This patch fixes the problem by limiting reference following to the
topmost layer of calls -- that is, reference-typed struct members are
never considered as being VLAs.

Built and regtested on x86-64 Fedora 20.
New test case included.
