Don't allow unsafe statics outside of extern blocks (beta version)

This PR fixes a regression where we allowed `unsafe static` items in top-level modules (i.e. outside of `unsafe extern` blocks).

rust-lang#127943 does not rebase cleanly, so I've prepared an extremely pared down version of this PR for beta purposes.
