Bug 21647 – pragma(msg) should be able to print a void type

The following: alias V = void; pragma(msg, V); should print: void And it does when the pragma is inside a function! But when it as global level, it prints: Error: Cannot pass argument void to pragma msg because it is void This problem was introduced in https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/7316 as a fix for https://issues.dlang.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17382. Unfortunately, it altered the code for PragmaDeclaration but not PragmaStatement, hence the difference. But the 17382 bug remains. Essentially, 7316 was not a correct fix for 17382.
