* Update WebAssembly C API submodule to latest commit.
This commit updates the WebAssembly C API submodule (for `wasm.h`) to the
latest commit out of master.
This fixes the behavior of `wasm_name_new_from_string` such that it no longer
copies the null character into the name, which caused unexpected failures when
using the Wasmtime linker as imports wouldn't resolve when the null was
present.
Along with this change were breaking changes to `wasm_func_call`, the host
callback signatures, and `wasm_instance_new` to take a vector type instead of a
pointer to an unsized array.
As a result, Wasmtime language bindings based on the C API will need to be
updated once this change is pulled in.
Fixes#2211.
Fixes#2131.
* Update Doxygen comments for wasm.h changes.
* Update the C API with module linking support
This commit does everything necessary (ideally) to support the module
linking proposal in the C API. The changes here are:
* New `wasm_{module,instance}type_t` types and accessors
* New `wasm_{module,instance}_type` functions
* Conversions between `wasm_extern_t` and `wasm_{instance,module}_t`, as
well as `wasm_externtype_t` and the new types.
* Addition of `WASM_EXTERN_{MODULE,INSTANCE}` constants
* New `wasm_config_t` modifier to enable/disable module linking
With these functions it should be possible to pass instances/modules to
instances and also acquire them from exports. Altogether this should
enable everything for module linking.
An important point for this is that I've opted to add all these items
under the `wasm_*` name prefix instead of `wasmtime_*`. I've done this
since they're all following the idioms of existing APIs and while not
standard the intention would be to standardize them (unlike many other
Wasmtime-specific APIs).

* Appease doxygen
With the module linking proposal the field name on imports is now
optional, and only the module is required to be specified. This commit
propagates this API change to the boundary of wasmtime's API, ensuring
consumers are aware of what's optional with module linking and what
isn't. Note that it's expected that all existing users will either
update accordingly or unwrap the result since module linking is
presumably disabled.
This commit fills out documentation for all remaining functions in the C
API, and additionally enables "warn if undocumented" which will fail CI
since warnings are also treated as errors.
This commit adds a bit of a skeleton of what it might look like to
document the C API. Today the C API has virtually zero documentation
because the upstream documentation does not exist and we haven't put a
ton of effort into documenting our own extensions. Given that this is
one of the main vectors we expect users to use Wasmtime, we should make
sure it's thoroughly documented!
I've never really done much documentation generation of C myself before,
but I did a bit of searching and Doxygen seems reasonable proficient for
doing this. This commit sets up what it might look like for Doxygen to
be used for the C API. One nice feature of DOxygen is that we can
document the items in `wasm.h` without actually modifying `wasm.h`. For
those purposes a `doc-wasm.h` file was added here which is where we can
put Wasmtime-specific documentation about `wasm.h`.
There's quite a few functions in the C API so I didn't want to get them
all done before getting consensus on this. I've started some skeletons
of documentation for global types in `wasm.h` and also confirmed that
documentation works for our own `wasmtime.h` and such header files. If
this looks good to everyone and it runs reasonable well on CI then I can
spend more time filling out the rest of the documentation.
