Summary: symtable.Symbol.is_global() is strange

Initial Comment:
The symtable.Symbol.is_global() returns false for
symbols in plain functions:

If the source looks like this:

foo = 1

def fie():
    print foo

Calling is_global() for the "foo" name returns False
(using the fie functions SymbolTable).

With a method, however, it works as expected:

foo = 1

class C:
    def fie(self):
        print foo

I would appreciate if someone could take a look at this.
This problem makes the development of pyobfuscate harder:
Basically, I'm guessing how things are supposed to work. Bug
896052 is, of course, also relevant.
