Description

Tested with sightglass for spidermonkey-json: https://github.com/bytecodealliance/sightglass/blob/main/benchmarks/spidermonkey/spidermonkey-json.wasm

Phase | Base | Upstream | Relative Performance
-- | -- | -- | --
Compilation | 30125453533 | 29900200416 | -0.75%
Instantiation | 811322 | 803595.3 | +0.96%
Execution | 544499791.7 | 640038909.6 | -14.93%

* The unit of measure is CPU cycle (sightglass default)
* Base is a wasmtime/cranelift variant with no mid-end ISLE optimization rules
* Upstream is the latest version of wasmtime/cranelift.

### Expected Results

Spidermonkey represents a major workload for wasmtime.
Mid-end optimization should not regress performance.

### Actual Results

The performance is severely regressed.
