[PATCH 3/4] glr2.cc: avoid type-punning issues

[Akim Demaille]

On the CI, tests fail with GCC 4.6 to GCC 6 as follows:

    tests/synclines.at:440: COLUMNS=1000; export COLUMNS; NO_TERM_HYPERLINKS=1; 
export NO_TERM_HYPERLINKS;  bison --color=no -fno-caret  -o \"\\\"\".cc 
\"\\\"\".y
    tests/synclines.at:440: $CXX $CXXFLAGS $CPPFLAGS  $LDFLAGS -o \"\\\"\" 
\"\\\"\".cc $LIBS
    stderr:
    "\"".cc: In member function 'glr_state& glr_stack_item::getState()':
    "\"".cc:1404:47: error: dereferencing type-punned pointer will break

         return *reinterpret_cast<glr_state*>(&raw_);
