Peter Huene b58afbf849 Refactor module instantiation in the runtime.
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 is the wasmtime-environ crate, which contains the implementations of the ModuleEnvironment and FuncEnvironment traits from cranelift-wasm. They effectively implement an ABI for basic wasm compilation that defines how linear memories are allocated, how indirect calls work, and other details. They can be used for JITing, native object files, or other purposes.
