* Enable jitdump profiling support by default This the result of some of the investigation I was doing for #1017. I've done a number of refactorings here which culminated in a number of changes that all amount to what I think should result in jitdump support being enabled by default: * Pass in a list of finished functions instead of just a range to ensure that we're emitting jit dump data for a specific module rather than a whole `CodeMemory` which may have other modules. * Define `ProfilingStrategy` in the `wasmtime` crate to have everything locally-defined * Add support to the C API to enable profiling * Documentation added for profiling with jitdump to the book * Split out supported/unsupported files in `jitdump.rs` to avoid having lots of `#[cfg]`. * Make dependencies optional that are only used for `jitdump`. * Move initialization up-front to `JitDumpAgent::new()` instead of deferring it to the first module. * Pass around `Arc<dyn ProfilingAgent>` instead of `Option<Arc<Mutex<Box<dyn ProfilingAgent>>>>` The `jitdump` Cargo feature is now enabled by default which means that our published binaries, C API artifacts, and crates will support profiling at runtime by default. The support I don't think is fully fleshed out and working but I think it's probably in a good enough spot we can get users playing around with it!

Installation
The Wasmtime CLI can be installed on Linux and macOS with a small install script:
$ curl https://wasmtime.dev/install.sh -sSf | bash
Windows or otherwise interested users can download installers and binaries directly from the GitHub Releases page.
Example
If you've got the Rust compiler installed then you can take some Rust source code:
fn main() {
println!("Hello, world!");
}
and compile/run it with:
$ rustup target add wasm32-wasi
$ rustc hello.rs --target wasm32-wasi
$ wasmtime hello.wasm
Hello, world!
Features
-
Lightweight. Wasmtime is a standalone runtime for WebAssembly that scales with your needs. It fits on tiny chips as well as makes use of huge servers. Wasmtime can be embedded into almost any application too.
-
Fast. Wasmtime is built on the optimizing Cranelift code generator to quickly generate high-quality machine code at runtime.
-
Configurable. Whether you need to precompile your wasm ahead of time, generate code blazingly fast with Lightbeam, or interpret it at runtime, Wasmtime has you covered for all your wasm-executing needs.
-
WASI. Wasmtime supports a rich set of APIs for interacting with the host environment through the WASI standard.
-
Standards Compliant. Wasmtime passes the official WebAssembly test suite, implements the official C API of wasm, and implements future proposals to WebAssembly as well. Wasmtime developers are intimately engaged with the WebAssembly standards process all along the way too.
