[PATCH, applied] abilint --show-type-use: Show results for global decls that have no symbols

[Dodji Seketeli]

Hello,

In some abixml files, there can be global decls that don't have ELF
symbols.  We still want to see how those decls use the type that is
being used, as analyzed by abilint --show-type-use <type-id>.

	* include/abg-fwd.h (is_at_global_scope): Declare ...
	* src/abg-ir.cc (is_at_global_scope): ... new overload.
	* tools/abilint.cc (emit_artifact_use_trace): Emit the trace also
	when the decl is at global scope or has a linkage name.
