This commit removes the Lightbeam backend from Wasmtime as per [RFC 14]. This backend hasn't received maintenance in quite some time, and as [RFC 14] indicates this doesn't meet the threshold for keeping the code in-tree, so this commit removes it. A fast "baseline" compiler may still be added in the future. The addition of such a backend should be in line with [RFC 14], though, with the principles we now have for stable releases of Wasmtime. I'll close out Lightbeam-related issues once this is merged. [RFC 14]: https://github.com/bytecodealliance/rfcs/pull/14
This crate contains the core Cranelift code generator. It translates code from an intermediate representation into executable machine code.
