This commit refactors module instantiation in the runtime to allow for different instance allocation strategy implementations. It adds an `InstanceAllocator` trait with the current implementation put behind the `OnDemandInstanceAllocator` struct. The Wasmtime API has been updated to allow a `Config` to have an instance allocation strategy set which will determine how instances get allocated. This change is in preparation for an alternative *pooling* instance allocator that can reserve all needed host process address space in advance. This commit also makes changes to the `wasmtime_environ` crate to represent compiled modules in a way that reduces copying at instantiation time.
This crate performs the translation from a wasm module in binary format to the in-memory form of the Cranelift IR.
If you're looking for a complete WebAssembly implementation that uses this library, see Wasmtime.
