[CGlobals::] C Global Variables.

Global variables translated to C.

@ The basic scheme is this: the global Inter variables are going to have
their values stored in an array, so to identify which variable you are reading
or writing, you need an index (i.e., position) in that array.

The main thing we need to compile is a (static) array of initial values for
these variables, so that a new process can be initialised. But we must also
define constants to refer to their positions in the array.

	WRITE("i7word_t i7_initial_variable_values[i7_no_variables];\n");
	CodeGen::deselect(gen, saved);
}

@ We will assign the global variables unique index numbers 0, 1, 2, ..., with
the special variable |self| given index 0. Note that |self| always exists,
but has no Inter declaration node.
