Added a --global-module-index option to specify a (possibly relative) URL
to the Global Module Index for a set of documents. This is used to include
a reference to the global index from the per-document module indexes, so
that it is just a little easier to find.
(Someone suggested this, but I do not remember who. Please let me know if
it was you -- thanks!)
