compiler: avoid saving foreign call target to local when there are no caller-save GlobalRegs

This patch makes the STG->Cmm backend avoid saving foreign call target
to local when there are no caller-save GlobalRegs.

Since 321941a8, when we lower a
foreign call, we unconditionally save the foreign call target to a
temporary local first, then rely on cmmSink to clean it up later,
which only happens with -fcmm-sink (implied by -O) and not in
unoptimized code.

And this is troublesome for the wasm backend NCG, which needs to infer
a foreign call target symbol's type signature from the Cmm call site.
Previously, the NCG has been emitting incorrect type signatures for
unoptimized code, which happens to work with `wasm-ld` most of the
time, but this is never future-proof against upstream toolchain
updates, and it causes horrible breakages when LTO objects are
included in linker input. Hence this patch.
