Avoid JIT recursive compilation

[yaron.keren]

Summary

JITEmitter::getPointerToGlobal is called while in compilation, it should not call upon TheJIT->getPointerToGlobal since it may start another recursive compilation. Instead, it should call itself and generate a stub.

[yaron.keren]

Recursion not needed, just get the aliasee and continue.

[yaron.keren]

Calling getSimpleAliasee twice is not needed either.

+      return getPointerToGlobal(GV, Reference, MayNeedFarStub);
     return nullptr;
