This is a follow-on to the earlier work in reducing string copies,
mainly focused on ensuring that ASCII strings are easy to provide to the
JS runtime.
While we are replacing a 16-byte reference in a number of places with a
24-byte structure (measured via `std::mem::size_of`), the reduction in
copies wins out over the additional size of the arguments passed into
functions.
Benchmarking shows approximately the same if not slightly less wallclock
time/instructions retired, but I believe this continues to open up
further refactoring opportunities.
This PR introduces Wasm ops. These calls are optimized for entry from
Wasm land.
The `#[op(wasm)]` attribute is opt-in.
Last parameter `Option<&mut [u8]>` is the memory slice of the Wasm
module *when entered from a Fast API call*. Otherwise, the user is
expected to implement logic to obtain the memory if `None`
```rust
#[op(wasm)]
pub fn op_args_get(
offset: i32,
buffer_offset: i32,
memory: Option<&mut [u8]>,
) {
// ...
}
```
