Previously, when emitting a global for a string literal, we were creating a GlobalOp, building a GlobalView attr for it, and looking up the global from the symbol associated with the attr. This change splits out the function that creates the global so that the global is returned directly and the GlobalView attribute is only created in the case where it is needed.
This also updates the mechanism used for uniquing the global name used for the strings so that if different base names are used the uniquing numbers each base name separately. The mangling of the global used for strings is not implemented, but the uniquing was happening prior to the mangling. This change drops the uniquing below the placeholder for mangling.
