Recently we added diagnosing ODR-use of host variables
in device functions, which includes ODR-use of const
host variables since they are not really emitted on
device side. This caused regressions since we used
to allow ODR-use of const host variables in device
functions.
This patch allows ODR-use of const variables in device
functions if the const variables can be statically initialized
and have an empty dtor. Such variables are marked with
implicit constant attrs and emitted on device side. This is
in line with what clang does for constexpr variables.

variables emitted on both host and device side with different addresses
when ODR-used by host function should not cause device side counter-part
to be force emitted.

For -fgpu-rdc mode, static device vars in different TU's may have the same name.
To support accessing file-scope static device variables in host code, we need to give them
a distinct name and external linkage. This can be done by postfixing each static device variable with
a distinct CUID (Compilation Unit ID) hash.
Since the static device variables have different name across compilation units, now we let
them have external linkage so that they can be looked up by the runtime.
