Inconsistent naming for conversions #9

@rossberg

Description

@rossberg

The mnemonics for new conversion instructions are given as, for example, f32.convert_i32_s_ceil. That is inconsistent with preexisting modified conversion instructions such as i32.trunc_sat_f32_s, where the mode modifier is next to the base operation name. The generic name factorisation of <t1>.<op>_<t2>_<sx> is also depended upon by the spec.

Hence, the new conversion instructions ought to be named f32.convert_ceil_i32_s and so on.
