GlobalScope

THe value declarations are only set in the ast node if the handler of the ast node may not know the outer

This should ideally only be called once. It constructs a new global scope, which is not associated to any AST node. However, depending on the language, a language frontend can explicitly set the ast node using ScopeManager.resetToGlobal if the language needs a global scope that is restricted to a translation unit, i.e. C++ while still maintaining a unique list of global variables.

The list of child scopes.

Returns the GlobalScope of this scope by traversing its parents upwards.

Required field for object graph mapping. It contains the scope id.

The real new name

Scopes are nested and therefore have a parent child relationship, this two members will help navigate through the scopes,e.g. when looking up variables.
