During #425, @neilalexander gave constructive feedback that the API is
both moving fast, and not good enough yet. This attempts to reduce the
incidental complexity at the cost of a little conflation.
### odd presence of `wasm` and `wasi` packages -> `api` package
We had public API packages in wasm and wasi, which helped us avoid
leaking too many internals as public. That these had names that look
like there should be implementations in them cause unnecessary
confusion. This squashes both into one package "api" which has no
package collission with anything.
We've long struggled with the poorly specified and non-uniformly
implemented WASI specification. Trying to bring visibility to its
constraints knowing they are routinely invalid taints our API for no
good reason. This removes all `WASI` commands for a default to invoke
the function `_start` if it exists. In doing so, there's only one path
to start a module.
Moreover, this puts all wasi code in a top-level package "wasi" as it
isn't re-imported by any internal types.
### Reuse of Module for pre and post instantiation to `Binary` -> `Module`
Module is defined by WebAssembly in many phases, from decoded to
instantiated. However, using the same noun in multiple packages is very
confusing. We at one point tried a name "DecodedModule" or
"InstantiatedModule", but this is a fools errand. By deviating slightly
from the spec we can make it unambiguous what a module is.
This make a result of compilation a `Binary`, retaining `Module` for an
instantiated one. In doing so, there's no longer any name conflicts
whatsoever.
### Confusion about config -> `ModuleConfig`
Also caused by splitting wasm into wasm+wasi is configuration. This
conflates both into the same type `ModuleConfig` as it is simpler than
trying to explain a "will never be finished" api of wasi snapshot-01 in
routine use of WebAssembly. In other words, this further moves WASI out
of the foreground as it has been nothing but burden.

This allows users to reduce the memory limit per module below 4 Gi. This
is often needed because Wasm routinely leaves off the max, which implies
spec max (4 Gi). This uses Ki Gi etc in error messages because the spec
chooses to, though we can change to make it less awkward.
This also fixes an issue where we instantiated an engine inside config.

This introduces `SysConfig` to replace `WASIConfig` and formalize documentation around system calls.
The only incompatible change planned after this is to switch from wasi.FS to fs.FS
Implementation Notes:
Defaulting to os.Stdin os.Stdout and os.Stderr doesn't make sense for
the same reasons as why we don't propagate ENV or ARGV: it violates
sand-boxing. Moreover, these are worse as they prevent concurrency and
can also lead to console overload if accidentally not overridden.
This also changes default stdin to read EOF as that is safer than reading
from os.DevNull, which can run the host out of file descriptors.
Finally, this removes "WithPreopens" for "WithFS" and "WithWorkDirFS",
to focus on the intended result. Similar Docker, if the WorkDir isn't set, it
defaults to the same as root.

Allows users to do the following to enable sign-extension-ops:
```
r := wazero.NewRuntimeWithConfig(wazero.NewRuntimeConfig().WithFeatureSignExtensionOps(true))

This adds `RuntimeConfig.WithFeatureMutableGlobal(enabled bool)`, which
allows disabling of mutable globals. When disabled, any attempt to add a
mutable global, either explicitly or implicitly via decoding wasm will
fail.
To support this, there's a new `Features` bitflag that can allow up to
63 feature toggles without passing structs.
While here, I fixed a significant performance problem in decoding
binary:
