v0.6.0

Added

• Wasmex.Module.compile/1 which compiles a .wasm file into a module. This module can be given to the new methods Wasmex.Instance.new/2 and Wasmex.Instance.new_wasi/3 allowing to re-use precompiled modules. This has a big potential speed-up if one wishes to run a WASI instance multiple times. For example, the wasmex test suite went from 14.5s to 0.6s runtime with this release.
• Wasmex.start_link can now be called with a precompiled module.
• Wasmex.Module.compile/1 can now parse WebAssembly text format (WAT) too.
• WASM modules without exported memory can now be instantiated without error.
• Added the following functions to Wasmex.Module:
  • serialize/1 and unsafe_deserialize/1 which allows serializing a module into a binary and back
  • name/1 and set_name/1 which allows getting/setting a modules name for better debugging
  • imports/1 and exports/1 which lists a modules imports and exports

Deprecated

• Instance.from_bytes/2 and Instance.wasi_from_bytes/3 are deprecated in favor of Wasmex.Instance.new/2 and Wasmex.Instance.new_wasi/3. Both may be removed in any release after this one.
