This refactors the plugin host to support two backends: WebAssembly plugins through
wasmerand native shared libraries throughlibloading.The
PluginContextstruct abstracts over both types of plugins so that host call implementations only have to be implemented once. The maintenance cost of having two backends should therefore be small.The main downside of this feature is more
unsafecode.
