When inferring the pointer alignment, if the global doesn't have an initializer

and the alignment is 0 (i.e., it's defined globally in one file and declared in
another file) it could get an alignment which is larger than the ABI allows for
that type, resulting in aligned moves being used for unaligned loads.

For instance, in file A.c:

   struct S s;

In file B.c:
   struct {
     // something long
   };
   extern S s;

   void foo() {
     struct S p = s;
     // ...
   }

this copy is a 'memcpy' which is turned into a series of 'movaps' instructions
on X86. But this is wrong, because 'struct S' has alignment of 4, not 16.
