[ThinLTO] Fix importing of writeonly variables in distributed ThinLTO
Summary: D69561/dde58938 enabled importing of readonly variables with references, however, it introduced a bug relating to importing/internalization of writeonly variables with references. A fix for this was added in D70006/7f92d66f. But this didn't work in distributed ThinLTO mode. The reason is that the fix (importing the writeonly var with a zeroinitializer) was only applied when there were references on the writeonly var summary. In distributed ThinLTO mode, where we only have a small slice of the index, we will not have the references on the importing side if we are not importing those referenced values. Rather than changing this handshaking (which will require a lot of other changes, since that's how we know what to import in the distributed backend clang invocation), we can simply always give the writeonly variable a zero initializer.
