We originally had a `context.Context` for anything that might be
traced, but it turned out to be only useful for lifecycle and host functions.
For instruction-scoped aspects like memory updates, a context parameter is too
fine-grained and also invisible in practice. For example, most users will use
the compiler engine, and its memory, global or table access will never use go's
context.

This enforces that wazero will build and operate one version behind Go's
support policy, making wazero's Go policy effectively three versions.
This is to allow libraries with more conservative Go policies to be able
to use wazero, specifically mosn is the first to need this.

This restores the ability to leave out the initial context parameter
when defining functions with reflection. This is important because some
projects are porting from a different library to wazero, and all the
alternatives are not contextualized.
For example, this project is porting envoy host functions, and the
original definitions (in mosn) don't have a context parameter. By being
lenient, they can migrate easier.

This PR follows @hafeidejiangyou advice to not only enable end users to
avoid reflection when calling host functions, but also use that approach
ourselves internally. The performance results are staggering and will be
noticable in high performance applications.

BenchmarkHostCall/Call-16 1000000 1050 ns/op

```
To accomplish this, this PR consolidates code around host function
definition and enables a fast path for functions where the user takes
responsibility for defining its WebAssembly mappings. Existing users
will need to change their code a bit, as signatures have changed.
For example, we are now more strict that all host functions require a
context parameter zero. Also, we've replaced
`HostModuleBuilder.ExportFunction` and `ExportFunctions` with a new type
`HostFunctionBuilder` that consolidates the responsibility and the
documentation.
```diff
ctx := context.Background()
-hello := func() {
+hello := func(context.Context) {
fmt.Fprintln(stdout, "hello!")
}
-_, err := r.NewHostModuleBuilder("env").ExportFunction("hello", hello).Instantiate(ctx, r)
+_, err := r.NewHostModuleBuilder("env").
+ NewFunctionBuilder().WithFunc(hello).Export("hello").
+ Instantiate(ctx, r)
```
Power users can now use `HostFunctionBuilder` to define functions that
won't use reflection. There are two choices of interfaces to use
depending on if that function needs access to the calling module or not:
`api.GoFunction` and `api.GoModuleFunction`. Here's an example defining
one.
```go
builder.WithGoFunction(api.GoFunc(func(ctx context.Context, params []uint64) []uint64 {
x, y := uint32(params[0]), uint32(params[1])
sum := x + y
return []uint64{sum}
}, []api.ValueType{api.ValueTypeI32, api.ValueTypeI32}, []api.ValueType{api.ValueTypeI32})
```
As you'll notice and as documented, this approach is more verbose and
not for everyone. If you aren't making a low-level library, you are
likely able to afford the 1us penalty for the convenience of reflection.
However, we are happy to enable this option for foundational libraries
and those with high performance requirements (like ourselves)!

We formerly introduced `MemorySizer` as a way to control capacity independently of size. This was the first and only feature in `CompileConfig`. While possibly used privately, `MemorySizer` has never been used in public GitHub code.
These APIs interfere with how we do caching of compiled modules. Notably, they can change the min or max defined in wasm, which invalidates some constants. This has also had a bad experience, forcing everyone to boilerplate`wazero.NewCompileConfig()` despite that API never being used in open source.
This addresses the use cases in a different way, by moving configuration to `RuntimeConfig` instead. This allows us to remove `MemorySizer` and `CompileConfig`, and the problems with them, yet still retaining functionality in case someone uses it.
* `RuntimeConfig.WithMemoryLimitPages(uint32)`: Prevents memory from growing to 4GB (spec limit) per instance.
* This works regardless of whether the wasm encodes max or not. If there is no max, it becomes effectively this value.
* `RuntimeConfig.WithMemoryCapacityFromMax(bool)`: Prevents reallocations (when growing).
* Wasm that never sets max will grow from min to the limit above.
Note: Those who want to change their wasm (ex insert a max where there was none), have to do that externally, ex via compiler settings or post-build transformations such as [wabin](https://github.com/tetratelabs/wabin)

We at one point considered making `ModuleBuilder` create complete
WebAssembly binaries. However, we recently spun out
[wabin](https://github.com/tetratelabs/wabin), which allows this.
Meanwhile, the features in `ModuleBuilder` were confusing and misused.
For example, the only two cases memory was exported on GitHub were done
by accident. This is because host functions act on the guest's memory,
not their own.
Hence, this removes memory and globals from host side definitions, and
renames the type to HostModuleBuilder to clarify this is not ever going
to be used to construct normal Wasm binaries.
Most importantly, this simplifies the API and reduces a lot of code. It
is important to make changes like this, particularly deleting any
experimental things that didn't end up useful.

While compilers should be conservative when targeting WebAssembly Core
features, runtimes should be lenient as otherwise people need to
constantly turn on all features. Currently, most examples have to turn
on 2.0 features because compilers such as AssemblyScript and TinyGo use
them by default. This matches the policy with the reality, and should
make first time use easier.
This top-levels an internal type as `api.CoreFeatures` and defaults to
2.0 as opposed to 1.0, our previous default. This is less cluttered than
the excess of `WithXXX` methods we had prior to implementing all
planned WebAssembly Core Specification 1.0 features.
Finally, this backfills rationale as flat config types were a distinct
decision even if feature set selection muddied the topic.

This introduces wasm.CallEngine internal type, and assign it to the api.Function
implementations. api.Function.Call now uses that CallEngine assigned to it
to make function calls.
Internally, when creating CallEngine implementation, the compiler engine allocates
call frames and values stack. Previously, we allocate these stacks for each function calls,
which was a severe overhead as we can recognize in the benchmarks. As a result,
this reduces the memory usage (== reduces the GC jobs) as long as we reuse
the same api.Function multiple times.
As a side effect, now api.Function.Call is not goroutine-safe. So this adds the comment
about it on that method.

This adds the new vs target to measure the cost of host function calls.
Notably, I can see that wazero is roughly 2x to 4x times faster than CGO-based
runtimes in terms of host call boundary crossing. One implication here is that
we can just focus on the native code generation rather than how to organize the
Go function calls. For example, it's not prioritized to call Go functions directly
from the native code.

This adds two clock interfaces: sys.Walltime and sys.Nanotime to
allow implementations to override readings for purposes of security or
determinism.
The default values of both are a fake timestamp, to avoid the sandbox
break we formerly had by returning the real time. This is similar to how
we don't inherit OS Env values.
This drops the text format (%.wat) and renames
InstantiateModuleFromCode to InstantiateModuleFromBinary as it is no
longer ambiguous.
We decided to stop supporting the text format as it isn't typically used
in production, yet costs a lot of work to develop. Given the resources
available and the increased work added with WebAssembly 2.0 and soon
WASI 2, we can't afford to spend the time on it.
The old parser is used only internally and will eventually be moved to
its own repository named watzero, possibly towards archival.

execution. We also free ourselves to create a JIT option without

This performs several changes to allow compilation config to be
centralized and scoped properly. The immediate effects are that we can
now process external types during `Runtime.CompileModule` instead of
doing so later during `Runtime.InstantiateModule`. Another nice side
effect is memory size problems can err at a source line instead of
having to be handled in several places.
There are some API effects to this, and to pay for them, some less used
APIs were removed. The "easy APIs" are left alone. For example, the APIs
to compile and instantiate a module from Go or Wasm in one step are left
alone.
Here are the changes, some of which are only for consistency. Rationale
is summarized in each point.
* ModuleBuilder.Build -> ModuleBuilder.Compile
* The result of this is similar to `CompileModule`, and pairs better
with `ModuleBuilder.Instantiate` which is like `InstantiateModule`.
* CompiledCode -> CompiledModule
* We punted on this name, the result is more than just code. This is
better I think and more consistent as it introduces less terms.
* Adds CompileConfig param to Runtime.CompileModule.
* This holds existing features and will have future ones, such as
mapping externtypes to uint64 for wasm that doesn't yet support it.
* Merges Runtime.InstantiateModuleWithConfig with Runtime.InstantiateModule
* This allows us to explain APIs in terms of implicit or explicit
compilation and config, vs implicit, kindof implicit, and explicit.
* Removes Runtime.InstantiateModuleFromCodeWithConfig
* Similar to above, this API only saves the compilation step and also
difficult to reason with from a name POV.
* RuntimeConfig.WithMemory(CapacityPages|LimitPages) -> CompileConfig.WithMemorySizer
* This allows all error handling to be attached to the source line
* This also allows someone to reduce unbounded memory while knowing
what its minimum is.
* ModuleConfig.With(Import|ImportModule) -> CompileConfig.WithImportRenamer
* This allows more types of import manipulation, also without
conflating functions with globals.
* Adds api.ExternType
* Needed for ImportRenamer and will be needed later for ExportRenamer.

WebAssembly Core Working Draft 1 recently came out. Before that, we had
a toe-hold feature bucked called FinishedFeatures. This replaces
`RuntimeConfig.WithFinishedFeatures` with `RuntimeConfig.WithWasmCore2`.
This also adds `WithWasmCore1` for those who want to lock into 1.0
features as opposed to relying on defaults.
This also fixes some design debt where we hadn't finished migrating
public types that require constructor functions (NewXxx) to interfaces.
By using interfaces, we prevent people from accidentally initializing
key configuration directly (via &Xxx), causing nil field refs. This also
helps prevent confusion about how to use the type (ex pointer or not) as
there's only one way (as an interface).

`Runtime.WithMemoryCapacityPages` is a function that determines memory
capacity in pages (65536 bytes per page). The inputs are the min and
possibly nil max defined by the module, and the default is to return
the min.
Ex. To set capacity to max when exists:
```golang
c.WithMemoryCapacityPages(func(minPages uint32, maxPages *uint32) uint32 {
if maxPages != nil {
return *maxPages
}
return minPages
})
```

This prepares for exposing operations like Memory.Grow while keeping the
ability to trace what did that, by adding a `context.Context` initial
parameter. This adds this to all API methods that mutate or return
mutated data.
Before, we made a change to trace functions and general lifecycle
commands, but we missed this part. Ex. We track functions, but can't
track what closed the module, changed memory or a mutable constant.
Changing to do this now is not only more consistent, but helps us
optimize at least the interpreter to help users identify otherwise
opaque code that can cause harm. This is critical before we add more
functions that can cause harm, such as Memory.Grow.

This is an API breaking change that does a few things:
* Stop encouraging practice that can break context propagation:
* Stops caching `context.Context` in `wazero.RuntimeConfig`
* Stops caching `context.Context` in `api.Module`
* Fixes context propagation in function calls:
* Changes `api.Function`'s arg0 from `api.Module` to `context.Context`
* Adds `context.Context` parameter in instantiation (propagates to
.start)
* Allows context propagation for heavy operations like compile:
* Adds `context.Context` as the initial parameter of `CompileModule`
The design we had earlier was a good start, but this is the only way to
ensure coherence when users start correlating or tracing. While adding a
`context.Context` parameter may seem difficult, wazero is a low-level
library and WebAssembly is notoriously difficult to troubleshoot. In
other words, it will be easier to explain to users to pass (even nil) as
the context parameter vs try to figure out things without coherent
context.
