Description

`wit-bindgen-go` was written by a Go novice (me) and could use some feedback from experienced Go developers regarding API idioms. Here are some examples of potential improvements:

- Make functions which return `result` in WIT return e.g. `(T, *E)` in Go and ensure that `*E` implements the standard Go `Error` interface
- Implement `io.Writer` for `StreamWriter[u8]` and `io.Reader` for `StreamReader[u8]`

I'm sure others will have more ideas.
