1736: feat(c-api): Implement `wasm_global_type` r=Hywan a=jubianchi

This patch adds a `wasm_globaltype_t::new` constructor for use by the
new `wasm_global_type` function and the existing
`wasm_globaltype_new_inner` function.

Note: `wasm_global_type` is defined here:
https://github.com/wasmerio/wasmer/blob/193d7c8ce1b744e6078269ac7a77dd53d1e4cbd6/lib/c-api/tests/wasm_c_api/wasm-c-api/include/wasm.h#L436
