* Add a first-class way of accessing caller's exports This commit is a continuation of #1237 and updates the API of `Func` to allow defining host functions which have easy access to a caller's memory in particular. The new APIs look like so: * The `Func::wrap*` family of functions was condensed into one `Func::wrap` function. * The ABI layer of conversions in `WasmTy` were removed * An optional `Caller<'_>` argument can be at the front of all host-defined functions now. The old way the wasi bindings looked up memory has been removed and is now replaced with the `Caller` type. The `Caller` type has a `get_export` method on it which allows looking up a caller's export by name, allowing you to get access to the caller's memory easily, and even during instantiation. * Add a temporary note * Move some docs
This is the wasmtime-wasi crate, which implements the
WebAssembly System Interface (WASI) API in Rust.
WASI is greatly inspired by and directly derived from CloudABI. It differs in that it has aspirations to expand to a greater scope, and to better support the needs of WebAssembly engines.
