bug#38270: 26.1; ada-mode 6.2.1 Ada > Misc > Reset Parser appears useless

[WAROQUIERS Philippe]

Maybe 'Restart Parser' ?
(kill parser looks too nasty).

For sure, we better have a 'please repair the parser' which works,
rather than having a (maybe microscopically) more efficient 'Reset parser'
that (at least in my case) does not work most of the time.
