Description

Not sure how feasible it would be, but it would be great if the generated C file implemented the WebAssembly C API for instantiation, dynamic enumeration of exports, integration with imports etc. for better interop with other engines.

Research direction

Start with the wasm2c output and compare its current capabilities with the WebAssembly C API in the linked wasm.h. Determine the scope needed for instantiation, dynamic export enumeration, and import integration. Done means generated C implements the requested API well enough to interoperate with other engines.
