Research direction

Build wasm-interp in debug mode and run the provided command with poc.wasm, enabling multi-memory and memory64. Start at the assertion in include/wabt/interp/interp.h:587 and trace the mixed memory index handling. Done means the module executes successfully and returns 72 without the assertion failure.
