[PATCH] D12393: WebAssembly: generate global loads

I would like to propose a different approach to global variables.

We should start by allocating all global variables inside the address space, using a plain old data section. This will be easy to do, it's what LLVM normally does, it'll support all global variables, and it's something we'll need to do anyway. And, it'll be easier to do if we don't have to contend with special-case tglobaladdr patterns up front.

Once that's done, we can talk about how best to optimize non-address-taken globals.
