When doing some unrelated performance measurements, I realized that segments 
backed by global scope were still paying a relatively high cost for liveness 
checks - that's because GlobalScopeImpl extends from SharedScopeImpl, and does 
not override the `isAlive` method. This means that when checking for liveness, 
we will still do (in some cases - e.g. when calling `checkValidStateSlow`) a 
volatile VH get on the scope state - which is useless in this case.

This simple patch adds the missing override.
