Add support for querying the default address space for global variables using globals_addrspace(::DataLayout).
This is used internally to make globalstring! and globalstring_ptr! emit strings in the correct address space.

Merged pull requests:

• Switch align APIs from Global to GVar. (#515) (@maleadt)
• Emit global strings in the correct address space. (#516) (@maleadt)
