Implement reference-types Wasm proposal (#635)

* add reference_types flag to Config

* enable all Wasm spec tests again

Many are failing at the moment since reference-types is not yet implemented in wasmi. The goal of this PR is to make all tests pass again.

* make table.copy and table.init instructions take table parameters

* make call.indirect take table parameter

* make FuncIdx use NonZeroU32

This allows to have size_of<Func> == size_of<Option<Func>>

* remove some From impls for Value

* create FuncRef type in wasmi

* add more Func and FuncRef size_of tests

* add test comment

* add FuncRef <-> UntypedValue conversions

* add ValueType::FuncRef

* make Value no longer Copy

This is in preparation for the introduction of the ExternRef type that is going to be a non-Copy type since internally it will be reference counted.

* add ExternRef type to wasmi

* fix no_std compilation

* fix another silly no_std compile error

* remove From<&Value> impl for UntypedValue

* re-design ExternRef

It no longer owns its data itself but uses to the store to do so just like any other entity in wasmi.

* add accessor methods to Value

Thesse methods were taken over from the Wasmtime API.

* apply clippy suggestion

* make Value no longer impl PartialEq

Just like in the Wasmtime API. Better mirroring.

* improve docs

* add ExternRef to Value

This also removes the Display impl for Value.
The wasmi CLI tool now instead implements its own way to display Value which makes more sense anyways.

* remove Display impl for FuncType

The Display implementation now resides in wasmi_cli which was its only user and makes more sense since Display impls usually are biased.

* add Default derive for ExternRef

* remove PartialEq impl of FuncRef

* remove TryInto API from Value

This better mirrors the Wasmtime API.

* remove Value::try_into

* add From<FuncRef> and From<ExternRef> for Value

* fix UntypedValue <-> [Func|Extern]Ref bugs with null values

* apply rustfmt

* fix internal doc link

* add additional conversion checks for safety

* apply rustfmt

* add element type to TableType

Note that the Table is still working as before.

* make Table use ValueType and Value

Internally TableEntity uses UntypedValue for efficiency reasons.

* fix bug in Arena::get_pair_mut

* make Table::get return Option instead of Result

* implement Table::{get, set} instructions

* add docs

* implement table.size Wasm instruction

* implement table.grow Wasm instruction

* add docs to TableEntity::grow_untyped

* implement Table[Entity]::fill method

* implement table.fill Wasm instruction

* add missing spectest global_i64 definition

* implement more Wast decodings for reference-types

* implement typed_select, ref.null and ref.is_null Wasm instructions

* allow reftypes in Element parsing

* cleanup assert

* add ValueType::{is_num, is_ref} methods

These are copied over from the Wasmtime API.

* properly adjust stack height for new table instructions

* allow RefNull and FuncRef in InitExpr

* dispatch on ValueType for evaluating InitExpr

* change error message to be closer to what Wasm spec testsuite expects

* improve wast testsuite

* fix bug in ExternObjectEntity::data and add test

* extend wast testsuite

* adjust TableOutOfBounds trap message and relax assertions

* apply rustfmt

* apply clippy suggestions

* adjust trap message

* improve trap message

* handle Wasm declared element segments

* account for element type when matching table types

* cleanup instantiation code a bit

* perform some renames and further cleanups

* more cleanups

* more linker cleanups

* improve LinkerError

* more cleanups

* apply rustfmt

* update docs for satisfies methods

* apply clippy suggestion

* fix internal doc link

* improve docs

* rename methods

* refactor check_subtype

* apply clippy suggestions

* implement ref.func Wasm instruction

* fix ModuleResources::global_get method

* improve global.get optimization

* minor cleanup

* update Wasm spec testsuite

* remove debug println

* cleanup testsuite runner

* remove unnecessary match arm

even Wasmtime does not know how to compare funcrefs according to the Wast specification. Therefore I think it has not been designed, yet.

* add print_i64 to Wasm spec testsuite module

* use Self were possible

* add temporary fix

* fix TableEntity::copy_within

* improve Table docs

* fix bug in Arena::get_pair_mut

* cleanup code after bug fix

* add element type check to table.copy

* move comment

* add missing #[repr(transparent)]

* cleanup error handling

* move more into chained iter in TableEntity::init

* fix bug in table.init procedures

* improve Wasm spec testsuite runner

* simplify MemoryType::is_subtype_of check

* simplify TableType::is_subtype_of procesures

* cleanup

* rename method

* improve MemoryError and TableError for subtyping

* cleanup linker errors for invalid subtypes

* improve Wasm spec testsuite runner error reporting

* apply rustfmt

* add Memory::import_ty method

This fixes a bug with import subtyping.
Apparently subtyping is concerned with dynamic types and not with static types.

* add Table::import_ty method for same reason as Memory::import_ty

* make Table::import_ty pub(crate)

* rename import_ty -> dynamic_ty

better name for the same thing

* remove clippy allowance

* table.init bail out earlier for len == 0

* apply rustfmt

* canonicalize FuncRef::null instances

Now all FuncRef::null() instances are always guaranteed to be encoded as 0.

* fi spelling in doc

* move safety comment to unsafe block

* canonicalize ExternRef::null() values properly

* fix bug in Executor::visit_table_copy
