X-Debbugs-CC: ada-mode-users <at> nongnu.org
Package: emacs, ada-mode
Version: 26.1
Severity: minor

This is a followup to #37620.  One of my colleagues reports being
hit by it quite often (this is indeed the most annoying bug remaining
in ada-mode right now).  When this happens, he tries Ada > Misc >
Reset Parser but this does not help the situation.  Only M-x
wisi-kill-parser makes emacs responsive again.  Therefore, I suggest
replacing the menu entry with Ada > Misc > Kill Parser.

I'm not sure what "Reset Parser" is supposed to do anyway.

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.

The menu entry "Reset Parser" runs wisi-reset-parser, which clears all
of the various caches associated with the parser. It is useful when an
elisp bug is causing problems.

wisi-kill-parser kills the parser process, which is useful when the
parser is taking too long due to a complex error, or for Ada bugs, and
then cleans up just two of the parse caches.

I'll change wisi-kill-parser to call wisi-reset-parser, so it handles
both elisp and Ada bugs, and change the menu entry to "Restart Parser"
and have it call wisi-kill-parser.
