Update binary size info in README.md (#3030)
And also show size in CI with NuttX.

The size info is from bloaty, which is a tool to measure binary size.
Example usage and output (WAMR stuff only):

```
➜  sim bloaty -s file nuttx/nuttx -d compileunits -n 10000 --source-filter wamr

# WebAssembly Micro Runtime
**A [Bytecode Alliance][BA] project**
[BA]: https://bytecodealliance.org/
**[Guide](https://wamr.gitbook.io/)**  **[Website](https://bytecodealliance.github.io/wamr.dev)**  **[Chat](https://bytecodealliance.zulipchat.com/#narrow/stream/290350-wamr)**
[Build WAMR](./doc/build_wamr.md) | [Build AOT Compiler](./wamr-compiler/README.md) | [Embed WAMR](./doc/embed_wamr.md) | [Export Native API](./doc/export_native_api.md) | [Build Wasm Apps](./doc/build_wasm_app.md) | [Samples](./samples/README.md)
WebAssembly Micro Runtime (WAMR) is a lightweight standalone WebAssembly (Wasm) runtime with small footprint, high performance and highly configurable features for applications cross from embedded, IoT, edge to Trusted Execution Environment (TEE), smart contract, cloud native and so on. It includes a few parts as below:
- [**VMcore**](./core/iwasm/): A set of runtime libraries for loading and running Wasm modules. It supports rich running modes including interpreter, Ahead-of-Time compilation(AoT) and Just-in-Time compilation (JIT). WAMR supports two JIT tiers - Fast JIT, LLVM JIT, and dynamic tier-up from Fast JIT to LLVM JIT.
- [**iwasm**](./product-mini/): The executable binary built with WAMR VMcore which supports WASI and command line interface.
- [**wamrc**](./wamr-compiler/): The AOT compiler to compile Wasm file into AOT file
- Useful components and tools for building real solutions with WAMR vmcore:
- [App-framework](https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wamr-app-framework/blob/main/app-framework/README.md): A framework for supporting APIs for the Wasm applications
- [App-manager](https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wamr-app-framework/blob/main/app-mgr/README.md): A framework for dynamical loading the Wasm module remotely
- [WAMR-IDE](./test-tools/wamr-ide): An experimental VSCode extension for developping WebAssembly applications with C/C++
### Key features
- Full compliant to the W3C Wasm MVP
- Small runtime binary size (core vmlib on cortex-m4f with tail-call/bulk memroy/shared memroy support, text size from bloaty)
* ~58.9K for fast interpreter
* ~56.3K for classic interpreter
* ~29.4K for aot runtime
* ~21.4K for libc-wasi library
* ~3.7K for libc-builtin library
- Near to native speed by AOT and JIT
- Self-implemented AOT module loader to enable AOT working on Linux, Windows, MacOS, Android, SGX and MCU systems
- Choices of Wasm application libc support: the built-in libc subset for the embedded environment or [WASI](https://github.com/WebAssembly/WASI) for the standard libc
