How to make unokywds.hxx from module sd usable for svdlayer.cxx in module svx?

One that is on the bottom of the module dependency graph induced by the 
dependencies of executables and libraries from one module on libraries 
from other modules (i.e., what `make dump-deps-png` would show if it 
would still work).  (Include-file--only dependencies are not taken into 
account there, so it would in theory be fine if a .cxx from lower-layer 
svx included unokywds.hxx from a hypothetical higher-layer include/sd/ 
to use those local-linkage sUNO_* variables.  In practice, such "reverse 
dependencies" probably just cause human confusion and should be avoided.)

(strictly speaking, the variables are not static, but have local linkage)

I guess both approaches would be acceptable.  While it may technically 
be a somewhat larger change (so could warrant a commit of its own), it 
is a rather trivial change after all, so combining it into a single 
commit together with its new use in svx would nicely demonstrate /why/ 
the change was made.
