Anything else right before an unreachable is removed by the main DCE
pass anyhow, but because of the structured form of BinaryenIR we can't remove
a drop. That is, this is the difference between
(i32.eqz
(i32.const 42)
(unreachable)
)
and
(drop
(call $foo)
)
(unreachable)
In both cases the unreachable is preceded by something we don't need,
but in the latter case it must remain in BinaryenIR for validation.
To optimize this, add a rule in StackIR.
Fixes #6715

The stringview types from the stringref proposal have three irregularities that
break common invariants and require pervasive special casing to handle properly:
they are supertypes of `none` but not subtypes of `any`, they cannot be the
targets of casts, and they cannot be used to construct nullable references. At
the same time, the stringref proposal has been superseded by the imported
strings proposal, which does not have these irregularities. The cost of
maintaing and improving our support for stringview types is no longer worth the
benefit of supporting them.
Simplify the code base by entirely removing the stringview types and related
instructions that do not have analogues in the imported strings proposal and do
not make sense in the absense of stringviews.
Three remaining instructions, `stringview_wtf16.get_codeunit`,
`stringview_wtf16.slice`, and `stringview_wtf16.length` take stringview operands
in the stringref proposal but cannot be removed because they lower to operations
from the imported strings proposal. These instructions are changed to take
stringref operands in Binaryen IR, and to allow a graceful upgrade path for
users of these instructions, the text and binary parsers still accept but ignore
`string.as_wtf16`, which is the instruction used to convert stringrefs to
stringviews. The binary writer emits code sequences that use scratch locals and `string.as_wtf16` to keep the output valid.
Future PRs will further align binaryen with the imported strings proposal
instead of the stringref proposal, for example by making `string` a subtype of
`extern` instead of a subtype of `any` and by removing additional instructions
that do not have analogues in the imported strings proposal.

Previously we had passes --generate-stack-ir, --optimize-stack-ir, --print-stack-ir
that could be run like any other passes. After generating StackIR it was stashed on
the function and invalidated if we modified BinaryenIR. If it wasn't invalidated then
it was used during binary writing. This PR switches things so that we optionally
generate, optimize, and print StackIR only during binary writing. It also removes
all traces of StackIR from wasm.h - after this, StackIR is a feature of binary writing
(and printing) logic only.
This is almost NFC, but there are some minor noticeable differences:
1. We no longer print has StackIR in the text format when we see it is there. It
will not be there during normal printing, as it is only present during binary writing.
(but --print-stack-ir still works as before; as mentioned above it runs during writing).
2. --generate/optimize/print-stack-ir change from being passes to being flags that
control that behavior instead. As passes, their order on the commandline mattered,
while now it does not, and they only "globally" affect things during writing.
3. The C API changes slightly, as there is no need to pass it an option "optimize" to
the StackIR APIs. Whether we optimize is handled by --optimize-stack-ir which is
set like other optimization flags on the PassOptions object, so we don't need the
old option to those C APIs.
The main benefit here is simplifying the code, so we don't need to think about
StackIR in more places than just binary writing. That may also allow future
improvements to our usage of StackIR.
