This allows you to specify the memory scope amongst existing logging scopes, both in API and the CLI.
e.g for the CLI.
```bash
$ wazero run --hostlogging=memory,filesystem --mount=.:/:ro cat.wasm
```
e.g. for Go
```go
loggingCtx := context.WithValue(testCtx, experimental.FunctionListenerFactoryKey{},
logging.NewHostLoggingListenerFactory(&log, logging.LogScopeMemory|logging.LogScopeFilesystem))
```
This is helpful for emscripten and gojs which have memory reset
callbacks. This will be much more interesting once #1075 is implemented.

wazero imports
Packages in this directory implement the host imports needed for specific languages or shared compiler toolchains.
- AssemblyScript e.g.
asc X.ts --debug -b none -o X.wasm - Emscripten e.g.
em++ ... -s STANDALONE_WASM -o X.wasm X.cc - Go e.g.
GOARCH=wasm GOOS=js go build -o X.wasm X.go - WASI e.g.
tinygo build -o X.wasm -target=wasi X.go
Note: You may not see a language listed here because it either works without host imports, or it uses WASI. Refer to https://wazero.io/languages/ for more.
Please open an issue if you would like to see support for another compiled language or toolchain.
Overview
WebAssembly has a virtual machine architecture where the host is the process
embedding wazero and the guest is a program compiled into the WebAssembly
Binary Format, also known as Wasm (%.wasm).
The only features that work by default are computational in nature, and the only way to communicate is via functions, memory or global variables.
When a compiler targets Wasm, it often needs to import functions from the host to satisfy system calls needed for functionality like printing to the console, getting the time, or generating random values. The technical term for this bridge is Application Binary Interface (ABI), but we'll call them simply host imports.
Packages in this directory are sometimes well re-used, such as the case in
WASI. For example, Rust, TinyGo, and Zig can
all target WebAssembly in a way that imports the same "wasi_snapshot_preview1"
module in the compiled %.wasm file. To support any of these, wazero users can
invoke wasi_snapshot_preview1.Instantiate on their wazero.Runtime.
Other times, host imports are either completely compiler-specific, such as the
case with GOARCH=wasm GOOS=js, or coexist alongside WASI, such as the case
with Emscripten.
