Saúl Cabrera 94b51cdb17 winch: Use cranelift-codegen x64 backend for emission. (#5581)
This change substitutes the string based emission mechanism with
cranelift-codegen's x64 backend.

This change _does not_:

* Introduce new functionality in terms of supported instructions.
* Change the semantics of the assembler/macroassembler in terms of the logic to
emit instructions.

The most notable differences between this change and the previous version are:

* Handling of shared flags and ISA-specific flags, which for now are left with
the default value.
* Simplification of instruction emission per operand size: previously the
assembler defined different methods depending on the operand size (e.g. `mov`
for 64 bits, and `movl` for 32 bits). This change updates such approach so that
each assembler method takes an operand size as a parameter, reducing duplication
and making the code more concise and easier to integrate with the x64's `Inst` enum.
* Introduction of a disassembler for testing purposes.

As of this change, Winch generates the following code for the following test
programs:

```wat

  (export "main" (func $main))

  (func $main (result i32)
        (i32.const 10)
        (i32.const 20)
        i32.add
        ))
```
