Allow only empty constructors for local __shared__ variables in a way
identical to restrictions imposed on dynamic initializers for global
variables on device.

According to CUDA programming guide (v7.5):
> E.2.9.4: Within the body of a device or global function, only
> shared variables may be declared with static storage class.

Summary:
This is important for e.g. the following case:
void sync() { __syncthreads(); }
void foo() {
do_something();
sync();
do_something_else():
}
Without this change, if the optimizer does not inline sync() (which it
won't because __syncthreads is also marked as noduplicate, for now
anyway), it is free to perform optimizations on sync() that it would not
be able to perform on __syncthreads(), because sync() is not marked as
convergent.
Similarly, we need a notion of convergent calls, since in the case when
we can't statically determine a call's target(s), we need to know
whether it's safe to perform optimizations around the call.
This change is conservative; the optimizer will remove these attrs where
it can, see r260318, r260319.

In general CUDA does not allow dynamic initialization of
global device-side variables. One exception is that CUDA allows
records with empty constructors as described in section E2.2.1 of
CUDA 7.5 Programming guide.
This patch applies initializer checks for all device-side variables.
Empty constructors are accepted, but no code is generated for them.
