Assist split gaps in structures

Context menu "Fix field at struct gap (F)"

When an "empty" structure member is accessed Hex-Rays shows something like:

      *(_DWORD *)&struc_1->fld_gap[12]
       or
      *(_DWORD *)&struc_1->gap0[12]

Right click on "gap" word and select "Fix field at struct gap" or just press "F" - the field member at position 0xC with type _DWORD will be created and "fld_gap" fields around - corrected

In the gif above:

• Type of a1 variable is changed to s3Bz* on variable rename by renaming/retyping assistant
• Just created by pressing "F" key struct fields are immediately renamed by Auto-renamer to the names on a right side of assignments
