- Emit SIMD/ref-types/bulk-memory flags into AOT file only when the features
are really used in wasm file
- Remove unused tail-call flag and stringref flag
- Add memoy64 flag and dynamic-linking flag
- Change WASM_FEATURE_THREADS to WASM_FEATURE_MULTI_THREAD
Allow to invoke the quick call entry wasm_runtime_quick_invoke_c_api_import to
call the wasm-c-api import functions to speedup the calling process, which reduces
the data copying.
Use `wamrc --invoke-c-api-import` to generate the optimized AOT code, and set
`jit_options->quick_invoke_c_api_import` true in wasm_engine_new when LLVM JIT
is enabled.
The wamrc execution errors were skipped in the runtest.py due to `sys.exit(1)`
was caught by upper try-catch sentence and ignored with ret_code 0 returned.
This PR fixed this script issue and fixed the related wamrc/GC issues found.
And refactor the original perf support
- use WAMR_BUILD_LINUX_PERF as the cmake compilation control
- use WASM_ENABLE_LINUX_PERF as the compiler macro
- use `wamrc --enable-linux-perf` to generate aot file which contains fp operations
- use `iwasm --enable-linux-perf` to create perf map for `perf record`
Error is reported when executing `wamrc --target=thumb -o <aot_file> <wasm_file>`:
```
LLVM ERROR: failed to perform tail call elimination on a call site marked musttail
Aborted (core dumped)
```
Set `abi` to "gnu" for the bare-metal target when `abi` is NULL,
or the below `bh_assert` and `bh_memcpy` may deference a NULL
pointer. Error is reported when running wamrc compiled with
`cmake .. -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug`:
```
core/iwasm/compilation/aot_llvm.c:2584:13: runtime error:
null pointer passed as argument 1, which is declared to never be null
```
Set the vendor-sys of bare-metal targets to "-unknown-none-",
and currently only add "thumbxxx" to the bare-metal target list.

Move the native stack overflow check from the caller to the callee because the
former doesn't work for call_indirect and imported functions.
Make the stack usage estimation more accurate. Instead of making a guess from
the number of wasm locals in the function, use the LLVM's idea of the stack size
of each MachineFunction. The former is inaccurate because a) it doesn't reflect
optimization passes, and b) wasm locals are not the only reason to use stack.
To use the post-compilation stack usage information without requiring 2-pass
compilation or machine-code imm rewriting, introduce a global array to store
stack consumption of each functions:
For JIT, use a custom IRCompiler with an extra pass to fill the array.
For AOT, use `clang -fstack-usage` equivalent because we support external llc.
Re-implement function call stack usage estimation to reflect the real calling
conventions better. (aot_estimate_stack_usage_for_function_call)
Re-implement stack estimation logic (--enable-memory-profiling) based on the new
machinery.

LLVM PGO (Profile-Guided Optimization) allows the compiler to better optimize code
for how it actually runs. This PR implements the AOT static PGO, and is tested on
Linux x86-64 and x86-32. The basic steps are:
1. Use `wamrc --enable-llvm-pgo -o <aot_file_of_pgo> <wasm_file>`
to generate an instrumented aot file.
2. Compile iwasm with `cmake -DWAMR_BUILD_STATIC_PGO=1` and run
`iwasm --gen-prof-file=<raw_profile_file> <aot_file_of_pgo>`
to generate the raw profile file.
3. Run `llvm-profdata merge -output=<profile_file> <raw_profile_file>`
to merge the raw profile file into the profile file.
4. Run `wamrc --use-prof-file=<profile_file> -o <aot_file> <wasm_file>`
to generate the optimized aot file.
5. Run the optimized aot_file: `iwasm <aot_file>`.
The test scripts are also added for each benchmark, run `test_pgo.sh` under
each benchmark's folder to test the AOT static pgo.
Segue is an optimization technology which uses x86 segment register to store
the WebAssembly linear memory base address, so as to remove most of the cost
of SFI (Software-based Fault Isolation) base addition and free up a general
purpose register, by this way it may:
- Improve the performance of JIT/AOT
- Reduce the footprint of JIT/AOT, the JIT/AOT code generated is smaller
- Reduce the compilation time of JIT/AOT
This PR uses the x86-64 GS segment register to apply the optimization, currently
it supports linux and linux-sgx platforms on x86-64 target. By default it is disabled,
developer can use the option below to enable it for wamrc and iwasm(with LLVM
JIT enabled):
```bash
wamrc --enable-segue=[<flags>] -o output_file wasm_file
iwasm --enable-segue=[<flags>] wasm_file [args...]
```
`flags` can be:
i32.load, i64.load, f32.load, f64.load, v128.load,
i32.store, i64.store, f32.store, f64.store, v128.store
Use comma to separate them, e.g. `--enable-segue=i32.load,i64.store`,
and `--enable-segue` means all flags are added.

The runtime instance memory layout changed when GC was enabled. With this patch
the GC is enabled for wamrc, but it keeps the compatibility with iwasm no matter GC
is enabled for it or not.
It may waste some memory for iwasm without GC support since the GC relative fields
for the table instance are always here, let's optimization it after AOT fully supports GC.
