9a88d3d894 Replace the global-exports mechanism with a caller-vmctx mechanism. (#789)
* Replace the global-exports mechanism with a caller-vmctx mechanism.

This eliminates the global exports mechanism, and instead adds a
caller-vmctx argument to wasm functions so that WASI can obtain the
memory and other things from the caller rather than looking them up in a
global registry.

This replaces #390.

* Fixup some merge conflicts

* Rustfmt

* Ensure VMContext is aligned to 16 bytes

With the removal of `global_exports` it "just so happens" that this
isn't happening naturally any more.

* Fixup some bugs with double vmctx in wasmtime crate

* Trampoline stub needed adjusting
* Use pointer type instead of always using I64 for caller vmctx
* Don't store `ir::Signature` in `Func` since we don't know the pointer
  size at creation time.
* Skip the first 2 arguments in IR signatures since that's the two vmctx
  parameters.

* Update cranelift to 0.56.0

* Handle more merge conflicts

* Rustfmt

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.

1a0ed6e388 Use the more-asserts crate in more places.
This provides assert_le, assert_lt, and so on, which can print the
values of the operands.
