        <pre>Currently this is not supported under wasm but is supported on other platforms.

We have a couple of options for how to implement this:

1. Linker relaxation

This would rewrite the "get_global + load/store" and "get_global +
call_indirect" into simple load/start or call_indirect instructions. 

2. Create module-internal globals for address and table offsets.  

I think I'll start with (2) since is simple and doesn't involve any new
relocation types.</pre>
