[patch] Document the restriction on removing a global from a COMDAT

The attached patch adds a note about why optimizations cannot drop
globlas from COMDATs.

Since this is the language ref I made the statement fairly generic, in
case there is some corner case where an optimization can figure out it
is actually safe to modify the symbols in a COMDAT.  Let me know if
you would prefer a more strict statement.

Cheers,
Rafael
