Formerly, we introduced `wazero.Namespace` to help avoid module name or import conflicts while still sharing the runtime's compilation cache. Now that we've introduced `CompilationCache` `wazero.Namespace` is no longer necessary. By removing it, we reduce the conceptual load on end users as well internal complexity. Since most users don't use namespace, the change isn't very impactful.
Users who are only trying to avoid module name conflict can generate a name like below instead of using multiple runtimes:
```go
moduleName := fmt.Sprintf("%d", atomic.AddUint64(&m.instanceCounter, 1))
module, err := runtime.InstantiateModule(ctx, compiled, config.WithName(moduleName))
```
For `HostModuleBuilder` users, we no longer take `Namespace` as the last parameter of `Instantiate` method:
```diff
// log to the console.
_, err := r.NewHostModuleBuilder("env").
NewFunctionBuilder().WithFunc(logString).Export("log").
- Instantiate(ctx, r)
+ Instantiate(ctx)
if err != nil {
log.Panicln(err)
}
```
The following is an example diff a use of namespace can use to keep compilation cache while also ensuring their modules don't conflict:
```diff
func useMultipleRuntimes(ctx context.Context, cache) {
- r := wazero.NewRuntime(ctx)
+ cache := wazero.NewCompilationCache()
for i := 0; i < N; i++ {
- // Create a new namespace to instantiate modules into.
- ns := r.NewNamespace(ctx) // Note: this is closed when the Runtime is
+ r := wazero.NewRuntimeWithConfig(ctx, wazero.NewRuntimeConfig().WithCompilationCache(cache))
// Instantiate a new "env" module which exports a stateful function.
_, err := r.NewHostModuleBuilder("env").

This removes the constraint of a module being exclusively wasm or host
functions. Later pull requests can optimize special imports to be
implemented in wasm, particularly useful for disabled logging callbacks.

This commit adds support for multiple tables per module.
Notably, if the WithFeatureReferenceTypes is enabled,
call_indirect, table.init and table.copy instructions
can reference non-zero indexed tables.

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 flattens Memory and Table types, particularly making it a
compilation error to add multiple of either.
This also backfills binary encoding of Table.

This converges host-defined modules with Wasm defined modules by
introducing a custom section for host-defined functions. The net result
are far less types and consistent initialization.
* HostModule is removed for Module
* HostFunction is removed for Function
* ModuleContext is removed for Module
Note: One impact of this is that the low-level API no longer accepts a
go context (context.Context), rather a `wasm.Module` which the function
is called in context of. This meant exposing `wasm.Module.WithContext`
to override the default.

Right now, it is a lot of copy/paste to decode inlined import
abbreviation with the same parser as module-defined ones. The primary
reason for this is that the import section is only guaranteed before
module-defined *after* expanding abbreviations. For example,
`(func (import "foo" "bar") ...` follows imports and may be followed by
any number of abbreviations. This means you can't know the end of
imports until you see the first `(func` which doesn't abbreviate one.
While certain external types, namely memory and table, can only be
imported once, this also applies to globals.
This change makes counting the current imports a `func() uint32` so that
it can be decoupled and used for any external type. Other PRs can
simplify memory and table which can only be imported once, but the
general signatures here will still work.
