Adds binary and text parsing support for the compact import section proposal. Also fixes a small section-sizing bug in the binary tests.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Sorry, I have somehow managed to miss this PR entirely!
This looks correct, I only have suggestions for simplifying the code somewhat.
The one thing I wonder is whether the encoder should also make use of the short-hands, similar to how it tries to compactify locals. But we can discuss that separately.

Adds binary and text parsing support for the compact import section proposal.
The text parser is a bit crazy because we need to disallow identifiers when using the second compact encoding form. The actual binding of identifiers has been sort of proxied up to the "caller" as a result. I'm open to suggestions for other ways to structure this, but duplicating all the externtype parsing seemed bad, and I'm no good with Menhir.
