* Treat global variables and parameters as non-differentiable when checking derivative data-flow
Global parameters are by-default not differentiable (even if they are of a differentiable type), because our auto-diff passes do not touch anything outside of function bodies.
The solution is to use wrapper objects with differentiable getter/setter methods (and we should provide a few such objects in the stdlib).
Fixes: #3289
This is a potentially breaking change: User code that was previously working with global variables of a differentiable type will now throw an error (previously the gradient would be dropped without warning). The solution is to use `detach()` to keep same behavior as before or rewrite the access using differentiable getter/setter methods.
