wasmtime: Add support for func.ref and table.grow with funcrefs

`funcref`s are implemented as `NonNull<VMCallerCheckedAnyfunc>`.

This should be more efficient than using a `VMExternRef` that points at a
`VMCallerCheckedAnyfunc` because it gets rid of an indirection, dynamic
allocation, and some reference counting.

Note that the null function reference is *NOT* a null pointer; it is a
`VMCallerCheckedAnyfunc` that has a null `func_ptr` member.
