This code is just for convenience to avoid duplication of the global string
on the mode-line and on the tab-bar.  When the user alters mode-line-misc-info
manually, then we can assume that the user does this intentionally,
e.g. to force duplication of the global string, etc.

But the default value of mode-line-misc-info doesn't change too often,
so there is no problem.

However, there is another problem: now display-time-string contains
additional trailing space, so when time is displayed on the
right edge on the tab-bar, time string is not aligned nicely anymore.
Now there is the gap between the time string and the right edge of the tab-bar.

How this could be avoided?  Maybe tab-bar-format-global now needs
to use 'string-trim' on the result of '(format-mode-line global-mode-string)'?
