* Enable the native target by default in winch
Match cranelift-codegen's build script where if no architecture is
explicitly enabled then the host architecture is implicitly enabled.
* Refactor Cranelift's ISA builder to share more with Winch
This commit refactors the `Builder` type to have a type parameter
representing the finished ISA with Cranelift and Winch having their own
typedefs for `Builder` to represent their own builders. The intention is
to use this shared functionality to produce more shared code between the
two codegen backends.
* Moving compiler shared components to a separate crate
* Restore native flag inference in compiler building
This fixes an oversight from the previous commits to use
`cranelift-native` to infer flags for the native host when using default
settings with Wasmtime.
* Move `Compiler::page_size_align` into wasmtime-environ
The `cranelift-codegen` crate doesn't need this and winch wants the same
implementation, so shuffle it around so everyone has access to it.
* Fill out `Compiler::{flags, isa_flags}` for Winch
These are easy enough to plumb through with some shared code for
Wasmtime.
* Plumb the `is_branch_protection_enabled` flag for Winch
Just forwarding an isa-specific setting accessor.
* Moving executable creation to shared compiler crate
* Adding builder back in and removing from shared crate
* Refactoring the shared pieces for the `CompilerBuilder`
I decided to move a couple things around from Alex's initial changes.
Instead of having the shared builder do everything, I went back to
having each compiler have a distinct builder implementation. I
refactored most of the flag setting logic into a single shared location,
so we can still reduce the amount of code duplication.
With them being separate, we don't need to maintain things like
`LinkOpts` which Winch doesn't currently use. We also have an avenue to
error when certain flags are sent to Winch if we don't support them. I'm
hoping this will make things more maintainable as we build out Winch.
I'm still unsure about keeping everything shared in a single crate
(`cranelift_shared`). It's starting to feel like this crate is doing too
much, which makes it difficult to name. There does seem to be a need for
two distinct abstraction: creating the final executable and the handling
of shared/ISA flags when building the compiler. I could make them into
two separate crates, but there doesn't seem to be enough there yet to
justify it.
* Documentation updates, and renaming the finish method

This commit prepares the x64 pieces from cranelift codegen to be consumed by
Winch for binary emission. This change doesn't introduce or modifies
functionality it makes the necessary pieces for binary emission public.
This change also improves documentation where applicable.
* egraph support: rewrite to work in terms of CLIF data structures.
This work rewrites the "egraph"-based optimization framework in
Cranelift to operate on aegraphs (acyclic egraphs) represented in the
CLIF itself rather than as a separate data structure to which and from
which we translate the CLIF.
The basic idea is to add a new kind of value, a "union", that is like an
alias but refers to two other values rather than one. This allows us to
represent an eclass of enodes (values) as a tree. The union node allows
for a value to have *multiple representations*: either constituent value
could be used, and (in well-formed CLIF produced by correct
optimization rules) they must be equivalent.
Like the old egraph infrastructure, we take advantage of acyclicity and
eager rule application to do optimization in a single pass. Like before,
we integrate GVN (during the optimization pass) and LICM (during
elaboration).
Unlike the old egraph infrastructure, everything stays in the
DataFlowGraph. "Pure" enodes are represented as instructions that have
values attached, but that are not placed into the function layout. When
entering "egraph" form, we remove them from the layout while optimizing.
When leaving "egraph" form, during elaboration, we can place an
instruction back into the layout the first time we elaborate the enode;
if we elaborate it more than once, we clone the instruction.
The implementation performs two passes overall:
- One, a forward pass in RPO (to see defs before uses), that (i) removes
"pure" instructions from the layout and (ii) optimizes as it goes. As
before, we eagerly optimize, so we form the entire union of optimized
forms of a value before we see any uses of that value. This lets us
rewrite uses to use the most "up-to-date" form of the value and
canonicalize and optimize that form.
The eager rewriting and acyclic representation make each other work
(we could not eagerly rewrite if there were cycles; and acyclicity
does not miss optimization opportunities only because the first time
we introduce a value, we immediately produce its "best" form). This
design choice is also what allows us to avoid the "parent pointers"
and fixpoint loop of traditional egraphs.
This forward optimization pass keeps a scoped hashmap to "intern"
nodes (thus performing GVN), and also interleaves on a per-instruction
level with alias analysis. The interleaving with alias analysis allows
alias analysis to see the most optimized form of each address (so it
can see equivalences), and allows the next value to see any
equivalences (reuses of loads or stored values) that alias analysis
uncovers.
- Two, a forward pass in domtree preorder, that "elaborates" pure enodes
back into the layout, possibly in multiple places if needed. This
tracks the loop nest and hoists nodes as needed, performing LICM as it
goes. Note that by doing this in forward order, we avoid the
"fixpoint" that traditional LICM needs: we hoist a def before its
uses, so when we place a node, we place it in the right place the
first time rather than moving later.
This PR replaces the old (a)egraph implementation. It removes both the
cranelift-egraph crate and the logic in cranelift-codegen that uses it.
On `spidermonkey.wasm` running a simple recursive Fibonacci
microbenchmark, this work shows 5.5% compile-time reduction and 7.7%
runtime improvement (speedup).
Most of this implementation was done in (very productive) pair
programming sessions with Jamey Sharp, thus:

Rather than recursively computing the lowest-cost node for a given

this is sufficient. The behavior may slightly differ from the earlier
behavior because we cannot short-circuit costs to zero once a node is
elaborated; but in practice this should not matter.

This is the implementation of https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/issues/4155, using the "inverted API" approach suggested by @cfallin (thanks!) in Cranelift, and trait object to provide a backend for an all-included experience in Wasmtime.
After the suggestion of Chris, `Function` has been split into mostly two parts:
- on the one hand, `FunctionStencil` contains all the fields required during compilation, and that act as a compilation cache key: if two function stencils are the same, then the result of their compilation (`CompiledCodeBase<Stencil>`) will be the same. This makes caching trivial, as the only thing to cache is the `FunctionStencil`.
- on the other hand, `FunctionParameters` contain the... function parameters that are required to finalize the result of compilation into a `CompiledCode` (aka `CompiledCodeBase<Final>`) with proper final relocations etc., by applying fixups and so on.
Most changes are here to accomodate those requirements, in particular that `FunctionStencil` should be `Hash`able to be used as a key in the cache:
- most source locations are now relative to a base source location in the function, and as such they're encoded as `RelSourceLoc` in the `FunctionStencil`. This required changes so that there's no need to explicitly mark a `SourceLoc` as the base source location, it's automatically detected instead the first time a non-default `SourceLoc` is set.
- user-defined external names in the `FunctionStencil` (aka before this patch `ExternalName::User { namespace, index }`) are now references into an external table of `UserExternalNameRef -> UserExternalName`, present in the `FunctionParameters`, and must be explicitly declared using `Function::declare_imported_user_function`.
- some refactorings have been made for function names:
- `ExternalName` was used as the type for a `Function`'s name; while it thus allowed `ExternalName::Libcall` in this place, this would have been quite confusing to use it there. Instead, a new enum `UserFuncName` is introduced for this name, that's either a user-defined function name (the above `UserExternalName`) or a test case name.
- The future of `ExternalName` is likely to become a full reference into the `FunctionParameters`'s mapping, instead of being "either a handle for user-defined external names, or the thing itself for other variants". I'm running out of time to do this, and this is not trivial as it implies touching ISLE which I'm less familiar with.
The cache computes a sha256 hash of the `FunctionStencil`, and uses this as the cache key. No equality check (using `PartialEq`) is performed in addition to the hash being the same, as we hope that this is sufficient data to avoid collisions.
A basic fuzz target has been introduced that tries to do the bare minimum:
- check that a function successfully compiled and cached will be also successfully reloaded from the cache, and returns the exact same function.
- check that a trivial modification in the external mapping of `UserExternalNameRef -> UserExternalName` hits the cache, and that other modifications don't hit the cache.
- This last check is less efficient and less likely to happen, so probably should be rethought a bit.
Thanks to both @alexcrichton and @cfallin for your very useful feedback on Zulip.
Some numbers show that for a large wasm module we're using internally, this is a 20% compile-time speedup, because so many `FunctionStencil`s are the same, even within a single module. For a group of modules that have a lot of code in common, we get hit rates up to 70% when they're used together. When a single function changes in a wasm module, every other function is reloaded; that's still slower than I expect (between 10% and 50% of the overall compile time), so there's likely room for improvement.
Fixes#4155.
* Move `emit_to_memory` to `MachCompileResult`
This small refactoring makes it clearer to me that emitting to memory
doesn't require anything else from the compilation `Context`. While it's
a trivial change, it's a small public API change that shouldn't cause
too much trouble, and doesn't seem RFC-worthy. Happy to hear different
opinions about this, though!
* hide the MachCompileResult behind a method
* Add a `CompileError` wrapper type that references a `Function`
* Rename MachCompileResult to CompiledCode
* Additionally remove the last unsafe API in cranelift-codegen
This PR adds a basic *alias analysis*, and optimizations that use it.
This is a "mid-end optimization": it operates on CLIF, the
machine-independent IR, before lowering occurs.
The alias analysis (or maybe more properly, a sort of memory-value
analysis) determines when it can prove a particular memory
location is equal to a given SSA value, and when it can, it replaces any
loads of that location.
This subsumes two common optimizations:
* Redundant load elimination: when the same memory address is loaded two
times, and it can be proven that no intervening operations will write
to that memory, then the second load is *redundant* and its result
must be the same as the first. We can use the first load's result and
remove the second load.
* Store-to-load forwarding: when a load can be proven to access exactly
the memory written by a preceding store, we can replace the load's
result with the store's data operand, and remove the load.
Both of these optimizations rely on a "last store" analysis that is a
sort of coloring mechanism, split across disjoint categories of abstract
state. The basic idea is that every memory-accessing operation is put
into one of N disjoint categories; it is disallowed for memory to ever
be accessed by an op in one category and later accessed by an op in
another category. (The frontend must ensure this.)
Then, given this, we scan the code and determine, for each
memory-accessing op, when a single prior instruction is a store to the
same category. This "colors" the instruction: it is, in a sense, a
static name for that version of memory.
This analysis provides an important invariant: if two operations access
memory with the same last-store, then *no other store can alias* in the
time between that last store and these operations. This must-not-alias
property, together with a check that the accessed address is *exactly
the same* (same SSA value and offset), and other attributes of the
access (type, extension mode) are the same, let us prove that the
results are the same.
Given last-store info, we scan the instructions and build a table from
"memory location" key (last store, address, offset, type, extension) to
known SSA value stored in that location. A store inserts a new mapping.
A load may also insert a new mapping, if we didn't already have one.
Then when a load occurs and an entry already exists for its "location",
we can reuse the value. This will be either RLE or St-to-Ld depending on
where the value came from.
Note that this *does* work across basic blocks: the last-store analysis
is a full iterative dataflow pass, and we are careful to check dominance
of a previously-defined value before aliasing to it at a potentially
redundant load. So we will do the right thing if we only have a
"partially redundant" load (loaded already but only in one predecessor
block), but we will also correctly reuse a value if there is a store or
load above a loop and a redundant load of that value within the loop, as
long as no potentially-aliasing stores happen within the loop.
This PR switches Cranelift over to the new register allocator, regalloc2.
See [this document](https://gist.github.com/cfallin/08553421a91f150254fe878f67301801)
for a summary of the design changes. This switchover has implications for
core VCode/MachInst types and the lowering pass.
Overall, this change brings improvements to both compile time and speed of
generated code (runtime), as reported in #3942:

* aarch64: Initial work to transition backend to ISLE
This commit is what is hoped to be the initial commit towards migrating
the aarch64 backend to ISLE. There's seemingly a lot of changes here but
it's intended to largely be code motion. The current thinking is to
closely follow the x64 backend for how all this is handled and
organized.
Major changes in this PR are:
* The `Inst` enum is now defined in ISLE. This avoids having to define
it in two places (once in Rust and once in ISLE). I've preserved all
the comments in the ISLE and otherwise this isn't actually a
functional change from the Rust perspective, it's still the same enum
according to Rust.
* Lots of little enums and things were moved to ISLE as well. As with
`Inst` their definitions didn't change, only where they're defined.
This will give future ISLE PRs access to all these operations.
* Initial code for lowering `iconst`, `null`, and `bconst` are
implemented. Ironically none of this is actually used right now
because constant lowering is handled in `put_input_in_regs` which
specially handles constants. Nonetheless I wanted to get at least
something simple working which shows off how to special case various
things that are specific to AArch64. In a future PR I plan to hook up
const-lowering in ISLE to this path so even though
`iconst`-the-clif-instruction is never lowered this should use the
const lowering defined in ISLE rather than elsewhere in the backend
(eventually leading to the deletion of the non-ISLE lowering).
* The `IsleContext` skeleton is created and set up for future additions.
* Some code for ISLE that's shared across all backends now lives in
`isle_prelude_methods!()` and is deduplicated between the AArch64
backend and the x64 backend.
* Register mapping is tweaked to do the same thing for AArch64 that it
does for x64. Namely mapping virtual registers is supported instead of
just virtual to machine registers.
My main goal with this PR was to get AArch64 into a place where new
instructions can be added with relative ease. Additionally I'm hoping to
figure out as part of this change how much to share for ISLE between
AArch64 and x64 (and other backends).
* Don't use priorities with rules
* Update .gitattributes with concise syntax
* Deduplicate some type definitions
* Rebuild ISLE
* Move isa::isle to machinst::isle
Peepmatic was an early attempt at a DSL for peephole optimizations, with the
idea that maybe sometime in the future we could user it for instruction
selection as well. It didn't really pan out, however:
* Peepmatic wasn't quite flexible enough, and adding new operators or snippets
of code implemented externally in Rust was a bit of a pain.
* The performance was never competitive with the hand-written peephole
optimizers. It was *very* size efficient, but that came at the cost of
run-time efficiency. Everything was table-based and interpreted, rather than
generating any Rust code.
Ultimately, because of these reasons, we never turned Peepmatic on by default.
These days, we just landed the ISLE domain-specific language, and it is better
suited than Peepmatic for all the things that Peepmatic was originally designed
to do. It is more flexible and easy to integrate with external Rust code. It is
has better time efficiency, meeting or even beating hand-written code. I think a
small part of the reason why ISLE excels in these things is because its design
was informed by Peepmatic's failures. I still plan on continuing Peepmatic's
mission to make Cranelift's peephole optimizer passes generated from DSL rewrite
rules, but using ISLE instead of Peepmatic.
Thank you Peepmatic, rest in peace!
* Use relative `call` instructions between wasm functions
This commit is a relatively major change to the way that Wasmtime
generates code for Wasm modules and how functions call each other.
Prior to this commit all function calls between functions, even if they
were defined in the same module, were done indirectly through a
register. To implement this the backend would emit an absolute 8-byte
relocation near all function calls, load that address into a register,
and then call it. While this technique is simple to implement and easy
to get right, it has two primary downsides associated with it:
* Function calls are always indirect which means they are more difficult
to predict, resulting in worse performance.
* Generating a relocation-per-function call requires expensive
relocation resolution at module-load time, which can be a large
contributing factor to how long it takes to load a precompiled module.
To fix these issues, while also somewhat compromising on the previously
simple implementation technique, this commit switches wasm calls within
a module to using the `colocated` flag enabled in Cranelift-speak, which
basically means that a relative call instruction is used with a
relocation that's resolved relative to the pc of the call instruction
itself.
When switching the `colocated` flag to `true` this commit is also then
able to move much of the relocation resolution from `wasmtime_jit::link`
into `wasmtime_cranelift::obj` during object-construction time. This
frontloads all relocation work which means that there's actually no
relocations related to function calls in the final image, solving both
of our points above.
The main gotcha in implementing this technique is that there are
hardware limitations to relative function calls which mean we can't
simply blindly use them. AArch64, for example, can only go +/- 64 MB
from the `bl` instruction to the target, which means that if the
function we're calling is a greater distance away then we would fail to
resolve that relocation. On x86_64 the limits are +/- 2GB which are much
larger, but theoretically still feasible to hit. Consequently the main
increase in implementation complexity is fixing this issue.
This issue is actually already present in Cranelift itself, and is
internally one of the invariants handled by the `MachBuffer` type. When
generating a function relative jumps between basic blocks have similar
restrictions. This commit adds new methods for the `MachBackend` trait
and updates the implementation of `MachBuffer` to account for all these
new branches. Specifically the changes to `MachBuffer` are:
* For AAarch64 the `LabelUse::Branch26` value now supports veneers, and
AArch64 calls use this to resolve relocations.
* The `emit_island` function has been rewritten internally to handle
some cases which previously didn't come up before, such as:
* When emitting an island the deadline is now recalculated, where
previously it was always set to infinitely in the future. This was ok
prior since only a `Branch19` supported veneers and once it was
promoted no veneers were supported, so without multiple layers of
promotion the lack of a new deadline was ok.
* When emitting an island all pending fixups had veneers forced if
their branch target wasn't known yet. This was generally ok for
19-bit fixups since the only kind getting a veneer was a 19-bit
fixup, but with mixed kinds it's a bit odd to force veneers for a
26-bit fixup just because a nearby 19-bit fixup needed a veneer.
Instead fixups are now re-enqueued unless they're known to be
out-of-bounds. This may run the risk of generating more islands for
19-bit branches but it should also reduce the number of islands for
between-function calls.
* Otherwise the internal logic was tweaked to ideally be a bit more
simple, but that's a pretty subjective criteria in compilers...
I've added some simple testing of this for now. A synthetic compiler
option was create to simply add padded 0s between functions and test
cases implement various forms of calls that at least need veneers. A
test is also included for x86_64, but it is unfortunately pretty slow
because it requires generating 2GB of output. I'm hoping for now it's
not too bad, but we can disable the test if it's prohibitive and
otherwise just comment the necessary portions to be sure to run the
ignored test if these parts of the code have changed.
The final end-result of this commit is that for a large module I'm
working with the number of relocations dropped to zero, meaning that
nothing actually needs to be done to the text section when it's loaded
into memory (yay!). I haven't run final benchmarks yet but this is the
last remaining source of significant slowdown when loading modules,
after I land a number of other PRs both active and ones that I only have
locally for now.
* Fix arm32

When one wants to manipulate the unwind information, the exact version
of `gimli` must be used both by the user and `cranelift-codegen`. It
makes the update procedure less obvious.
This patch proposes to re-export `gimli` when the `unwind` feature is
turned on.
Given a clif function, harvest all its integer subexpressions, so that they can
be fed into [Souper](https://github.com/google/souper) as candidates for
superoptimization. For some of these candidates, Souper will successfully
synthesize a right-hand side that is equivalent but has lower cost than the
left-hand side. Then, we can combine these left- and right-hand sides into a
complete optimization, and add it to our peephole passes.
To harvest the expression that produced a given value `x`, we do a post-order
traversal of the dataflow graph starting from `x`. As we do this traversal, we
maintain a map from clif values to their translated Souper values. We stop
traversing when we reach anything that can't be translated into Souper IR: a
memory load, a float-to-int conversion, a block parameter, etc. For values
produced by these instructions, we create a Souper `var`, which is an input
variable to the optimization. For instructions that have a direct mapping into
Souper IR, we get the Souper version of each of its operands and then create the
Souper version of the instruction itself. It should now be clear why we do a
post-order traversal: we need an instruction's translated operands in order to
translate the instruction itself. Once this instruction is translated, we update
the clif-to-souper map with this new translation so that any other instruction
that uses this result as an operand has access to the translated value. When the
traversal is complete we return the translation of `x` as the root of left-hand
side candidate.
Adds support for addss and subss. This is the first lowering for
sse floating point alu and some move operations. The changes here do
some renaming of data structures and adds a couple of new ones
to support sse specific operations. The work done here will likely
evolve as needed to support an efficient, inituative, and consistent
framework.
This patch includes:
- A complete rework of the way that CLIF blocks and edge blocks are
lowered into VCode blocks. The new mechanism in `BlockLoweringOrder`
computes RPO over the CFG, but with a twist: it merges edge blocks intto
heads or tails of original CLIF blocks wherever possible, and it does
this without ever actually materializing the full nodes-plus-edges
graph first. The backend driver lowers blocks in final order so
there's no need to reshuffle later.
- A new `MachBuffer` that replaces the `MachSection`. This is a special
version of a code-sink that is far more than a humble `Vec<u8>`. In
particular, it keeps a record of label definitions and label uses,
with a machine-pluggable `LabelUse` trait that defines various types
of fixups (basically internal relocations).
Importantly, it implements some simple peephole-style branch rewrites
*inline in the emission pass*, without any separate traversals over
the code to use fallthroughs, swap taken/not-taken arms, etc. It
tracks branches at the tail of the buffer and can (i) remove blocks
that are just unconditional branches (by redirecting the label), (ii)
understand a conditional/unconditional pair and swap the conditional
polarity when it's helpful; and (iii) remove branches that branch to
the fallthrough PC.
The `MachBuffer` also implements branch-island support. On
architectures like AArch64, this is needed to allow conditional
branches within plausibly-attainable ranges (+/- 1MB on AArch64
specifically). It also does this inline while streaming through the
emission, without any sort of fixpoint algorithm or later moving of
code, by simply tracking outstanding references and "deadlines" and
emitting an island just-in-time when we're in danger of going out of
range.
- A rework of the instruction selector driver. This is largely following
the same algorithm as before, but is cleaned up significantly, in
particular in the API: the machine backend can ask for an input arg
and get any of three forms (constant, register, producing
instruction), indicating it needs the register or can merge the
constant or producing instruction as appropriate. This new driver
takes special care to emit constants right at use-sites (and at phi
inputs), minimizing their live-ranges, and also special-cases the
"pinned register" to avoid superfluous moves.
Overall, on `bz2.wasm`, the results are:
wasmtime full run (compile + runtime) of bz2:
baseline: 9774M insns, 9742M cycles, 3.918s
w/ changes: 7012M insns, 6888M cycles, 2.958s (24.5% faster, 28.3% fewer insns)
clif-util wasm compile bz2:
baseline: 2633M insns, 3278M cycles, 1.034s
w/ changes: 2366M insns, 2920M cycles, 0.923s (10.7% faster, 10.1% fewer insns)
All numbers are averages of two runs on an Ampere eMAG.
Rather than outright replacing parts of our existing peephole optimizations
passes, this makes peepmatic an optional cargo feature that can be enabled. This
allows us to take a conservative approach with enabling peepmatic everywhere,
while also allowing us to get it in-tree and make it easier to collaborate on
improving it quickly.
This ports all of the identity, no-op, simplification, and canonicalization
related optimizations over from being hand-coded to the `peepmatic` DSL. This
does not handle the branch-to-branch optimizations or most of the
divide-by-constant optimizations.
that only one value ever flows. Has been observed to improve generated code
run times by up to 8%. Compilation cost increases by about 0.6%, but up to 7%
total cost has been observed to be saved; iow it can be a significant win in
terms of compilation time, overall.
* Move most wasmtime tests into one test suite
This commit moves most wasmtime tests into a single test suite which
gets compiled into one executable instead of having lots of test
executables. The goal here is to reduce disk space on CI, and this
should be achieved by having fewer executables which means fewer copies
of `libwasmtime.rlib` linked across binaries on the system. More
importantly though this means that DWARF debug information should only
be in one executable rather than duplicated across many.
* Share more build caches
Globally set `RUSTFLAGS` to `-Dwarnings` instead of individually so all
build steps share the same value.
* Allow some dead code in cranelift-codegen
Prevents having to fix all warnings for all possible feature
combinations, only the main ones which come up.
* Update some debug file paths
- Undo temporary changes to default features (`all-arch`) and a
signal-handler test.
- Remove `SIGTRAP` handler: no longer needed now that we've found an
"undefined opcode" option on ARM64.
- Rename pp.rs to pretty_print.rs in machinst/.
- Only use empty stack-probe on non-x86. As per a comment in
rust-lang/compiler-builtins [1], LLVM only supports stack probes on
x86 and x86-64. Thus, on any other CPU architecture, we cannot refer
to `__rust_probestack`, because it does not exist.
- Rename arm64 to aarch64.
- Use `target` directive in vcode filetests.
- Run the flags verifier, but without encinfo, when using new backends.
- Clean up warning overrides.
- Fix up use of casts: use u32::from(x) and siblings when possible,
u32::try_from(x).unwrap() when not, to avoid silent truncation.
- Take immutable `Function` borrows as input; we don't actually
mutate the input IR.
- Lots of other miscellaneous cleanups.

This patch adds the MachInst, or Machine Instruction, infrastructure.
This is the machine-independent portion of the new backend design. It
contains the implementation of the "vcode" (virtual-registerized code)
container, the top-level lowering algorithm and compilation pipeline,
and the trait definitions that the machine backends will fill in.
This backend infrastructure is included in the compilation of the
`codegen` crate, but it is not yet tied into the public APIs; that patch
will come last, after all the other pieces are filled in.
This patch contains code written by Julian Seward <jseward@acm.org> and
Benjamin Bouvier <public@benj.me>, originally developed on a side-branch
before rebasing and condensing into this patch series. See the `arm64`
branch at `https://github.com/cfallin/wasmtime` for original development
history.

* the target-lexicon crate no longer has or needs the std feature
in cargo, so we can delete all default-features=false, any mentions
of its std feature, and the nostd configs in many lib.rs files
* the representation of arm architectures has changed, so some case
statements needed refactoring
