* Treat `-` as an alias to `/dev/stdin`
This applies to unix targets only,
as Windows does not have an appropriate alternative.
* Add tests for piped modules from stdin
This applies to unix targets only,

* Move precompiled module detection into wasmtime
Previously, wasmtime-cli checked the module to be loaded is
precompiled or not, by pre-opening the given file path to
check if the "\x7FELF" header exists.
This commit moves this branch into the `Module::from_trusted_file`,
which is only invoked with `--allow-precompiled` flag on CLI.
The initial motivation of the commit is, feeding a module to wasmtime
from piped inputs, is blocked by the pre-opening of the module.
The `Module::from_trusted_file`, assumes the --allow-precompiled flag
so there is no piped inputs, happily mmap-ing the module to test
if the header exists.
If --allow-precompiled is not supplied, the existing `Module::from_file`
will be used, without the additional header check as the precompiled
modules are intentionally not allowed on piped inputs for security measures.
One caveat of this approach is that the user may be confused if
he or she tries to execute a precompiled module without
--allow-precompiled, as wasmtime shows an 'input bytes aren't valid
utf-8' error, not directly getting what's going wrong.
So this commit includes a hack-ish workaround for this.
Thanks to @jameysharp for suggesting this idea with a detailed guidance.
