feat: Instance Imports

[syrusakbary]

We should be able to pass imports to when instantiating a WebAssembly module, so the wasm code can call the host java functions and use their results.

[syrusakbary]

This is resolved in master. Closing the issue

(got confused about exports, reopening)

+1 would be super useful!

[sigmasoldi3r]

Agree! Is there any workaround?

[syrusakbary]

We are working on a small refactor that will enable this very easily.

[BlakeB415]

Any updates?

[syrusakbary]

The refactor is now publicly available (wasmer 1.0.0-alpha). We just need to update the bindings :)

@syrusakbary Can I call the host java functions and use their results from wasm code now? If so, could you tell me how to do? Thanks!

[Hywan]

Host functions aren't supported yet. We are going to work on it :-).

[SuperIceCN]

Will host funtions be supported in 2021?

[Hywan]

In 2021 for sure! I hope in a couple of weeks :-).

@Hywan is this being worked on? We're particularly interested in using it for memory import
