151075d553 Remove a panic in the cache worker (#922)
This panic can now be hit occasionally since the worker is indeed
dropped, and the comment about the static no longer applies.

70345aff31 Remove all global state from the caching system (#863)
* Remove all global state from the caching system

This commit is a continuation of an effort to remove usages of
`lazy_static!` and similar global state macros which can otherwise be
accomodated with passing objects around. Previously there was a global
cache system initialized per-process, but it was initialized in a bit of
a roundabout way and wasn't actually reachable from the `wasmtime` crate
itself. The changes here remove all global state, refactor many of the
internals in the cache system, and makes configuration possible through
the `wasmtime` crate.

Specifically some changes here are:

* Usage of `lazy_static!` and many `static` items in the cache module
  have all been removed.
* Global `cache_config()`, `worker()`, and `init()` functions have all
  been removed. Instead a `CacheConfig` is a "root object" which
  internally owns its worker and passing around the `CacheConfig` is
  required for cache usage.
* The `wasmtime::Config` structure has grown options to load and parse
  cache files at runtime. Currently only loading files is supported,
  although we can likely eventually support programmatically configuring
  APIs as well.
* Usage of the `spin` crate has been removed and the dependency is removed.
* The internal `errors` field of `CacheConfig` is removed, instead
  changing all relevant methods to return a `Result<()>` instead of
  storing errors internally.
* Tests have all been updated with the new interfaces and APIs.

Functionally no real change is intended here. Usage of the `wasmtime`
CLI, for example, should still enable the cache by default.

* Fix lightbeam compilation

39e57e3e9a Migrate back to std:: stylistically (#554)
* Migrate back to `std::` stylistically

This commit moves away from idioms such as `alloc::` and `core::` as
imports of standard data structures and types. Instead it migrates all
crates to uniformly use `std::` for importing standard data structures
and types. This also removes the `std` and `core` features from all
crates to and removes any conditional checking for `feature = "std"`

All of this support was previously added in #407 in an effort to make
wasmtime/cranelift "`no_std` compatible". Unfortunately though this
change comes at a cost:

* The usage of `alloc` and `core` isn't idiomatic. Especially trying to
  dual between types like `HashMap` from `std` as well as from
  `hashbrown` causes imports to be surprising in some cases.
* Unfortunately there was no CI check that crates were `no_std`, so none
  of them actually were. Many crates still imported from `std` or
  depended on crates that used `std`.

It's important to note, however, that **this does not mean that wasmtime
will not run in embedded environments**. The style of the code today and
idioms aren't ready in Rust to support this degree of multiplexing and
makes it somewhat difficult to keep up with the style of `wasmtime`.
Instead it's intended that embedded runtime support will be added as
necessary. Currently only `std` is necessary to build `wasmtime`, and
platforms that natively need to execute `wasmtime` will need to use a
Rust target that supports `std`. Note though that not all of `std` needs
to be supported, but instead much of it could be configured off to
return errors, and `wasmtime` would be configured to gracefully handle
errors.

The goal of this PR is to move `wasmtime` back to idiomatic usage of
features/`std`/imports/etc and help development in the short-term.
Long-term when platform concerns arise (if any) they can be addressed by
moving back to `no_std` crates (but fixing the issues mentioned above)
or ensuring that the target in Rust has `std` available.
