c8ab1e293e Improve robustness of cache loading/storing (#974)
* Improve robustness of cache loading/storing

Today wasmtime incorrectly loads compiled compiled modules from the
global cache when toggling settings such as optimizations. For example
if you execute `wasmtime foo.wasm` that will cache globally an
unoptimized version of the wasm module. If you then execute `wasmtime -O
foo.wasm` it would then reload the unoptimized version from cache, not
realizing the compilation settings were different, and use that instead.
This can lead to very surprising behavior naturally!

This commit updates how the cache is managed in an attempt to make it
much more robust against these sorts of issues. This takes a leaf out of
rustc's playbook and models the cache with a function that looks like:

    fn load<T: Hash>(
        &self,
        data: T,
        compute: fn(T) -> CacheEntry,
    ) -> CacheEntry;

The goal here is that it guarantees that all the `data` necessary to
`compute` the result of the cache entry is hashable and stored into the
hash key entry. This was previously open-coded and manually managed
where items were hashed explicitly, but this construction guarantees
that everything reasonable `compute` could use to compile the module is
stored in `data`, which is itself hashable.

This refactoring then resulted in a few workarounds and a few fixes,
including the original issue:

* The `Module` type was split into `Module` and `ModuleLocal` where only
  the latter is hashed. The previous hash function for a `Module` left
  out items like the `start_func` and didn't hash items like the imports
  of the module. Omitting the `start_func` was fine since compilation
  didn't actually use it, but omitting imports seemed uncomfortable
  because while compilation didn't use the import values it did use the
  *number* of imports, which seems like it should then be put into the
  cache key. The `ModuleLocal` type now derives `Hash` to guarantee that
  all of its contents affect the hash key.

* The `ModuleTranslationState` from `cranelift-wasm` doesn't implement
  `Hash` which means that we have a manual wrapper to work around that.
  This will be fixed with an upstream implementation, since this state
  affects the generated wasm code. Currently this is just a map of
  signatures, which is present in `Module` anyway, so we should be good
  for the time being.

* Hashing `dyn TargetIsa` was also added, where previously it was not
  fully hashed. Previously only the target name was used as part of the
  cache key, but crucially the flags of compilation were omitted (for
  example the optimization flags). Unfortunately the trait object itself
  is not hashable so we still have to manually write a wrapper to hash
  it, but we likely want to add upstream some utilities to hash isa
  objects into cranelift itself. For now though we can continue to add
  hashed fields as necessary.

Overall the goal here was to use the compiler to expose what we're not
hashing, and then make sure we organize data and write the right code to
ensure everything is hashed, and nothing more.

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

c5f998add2 Update the crates.io publishing scripts (#580)
* Fix fuzz target compilation.

* Bump version to 0.7.0

* Temporarily disable fuzz tests

Temporarily disable fuzz tests until https://github.com/bytecodealliance/cranelift/issues/1216 is resolved.

* Fix publish-all.sh to not modify the witx crate.

* Remove the "publish = false" attribute from Lightbeam.

* Add a README.md for wasmtime-interface-types.

* Remove the "rust" category.

This fixes the following warning:

warning: the following are not valid category slugs and were ignored: rust. Please see https://crates.io/category_slugs for the list of all category slugs.

* Mark wasmtime-cli as "publish = false".

* Sort the publishing rules in topological order.

Also, publish nightly-only crates with cargo +nightly.
