Document the wasmtime::Instance APIs (#814)

* Document the `wasmtime::Instance` APIs

This documents oddities like the import list and export list and how to
match them all up. Addtionally this largely just expands all the docs
related to `Instance` to get filled out.

This also moves the `set_signal_handler` functions into
platform-specific modules in order to follow Rust idioms about how to
expose platform-specific information. Additionally the methods are
marked `unsafe` because I figure anything having to do with signal
handling is `unsafe` inherently. I don't actually know what these
functions do, so they're currently still undocumented.

* Fix build of python bindings

* Fix some rebase conflicts

/// ## Providing Imports
///
/// The `imports` array here is a bit tricky. The entries in the list of
/// `imports` are intended to correspond 1:1 with the list of imports
/// returned by [`Module::imports`]. Before calling [`Instance::new`] you'll
/// want to inspect the return value of [`Module::imports`] and, for each
/// import type, create an [`Extern`] which corresponds to that type.
/// These [`Extern`] values are all then collected into a list and passed to
/// this function.
///
/// Note that this function is intentionally relatively low level. It is the
/// intention that we'll soon provide a [higher level API][issue] which will
/// be much more ergonomic for instantiating modules. If you need the full
/// power of customization of imports, though, this is the method for you!
///
/// ## Errors
///
/// This function can fail for a number of reasons, including, but not
/// limited to:
///
/// * The number of `imports` provided doesn't match the number of imports
/// returned by the `module`'s [`Module::imports`] method.
/// * The type of any [`Extern`] doesn't match the corresponding
/// [`ExternType`] entry that it maps to.
/// * The `start` function in the instance, if present, traps.
/// * Module/instance resource limits are exceeded.
///
/// When instantiation fails it's recommended to inspect the return value to
/// see why it failed, or bubble it upwards. If you'd like to specifically
/// check for trap errors, you can use `error.downcast::<Trap>()`.
