Description
### Use case
wasm interoperability would offers great value to flutter's framework
I'm sure the team is aware of this [[1](https://github.com/dart-archive/wasm/issues/146#issuecomment-1578567050), [2](https://github.com/dart-archive/wasm/issues/146#issuecomment-1579495860)] given that there used to be a [labs.dart.dev](https://pub.dev/publishers/labs.dart.dev/packages)'s package [wasm](https://pub.dev/packages/wasm)
that was [discontinued](https://github.com/dart-archive/wasm/issues/146) in summer 2023;
according to this [comment](https://github.com/dart-archive/wasm/issues/146#issuecomment-1577707770) such decision was caused by 3 technical obstacles:
- lack of dart/flutter native assets feature
- lack of AOT mode of the wasm runtime of choice for ios
- need for a separated package for bindings
as of today there is visible momentum towards the clearing of the main obstacles
- dart has an [experimental native assets feature](https://github.com/dart-lang/native/tree/main/pkgs/native_assets_cli)
- https://github.com/dart-lang/sdk/issues/50565
- https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/129757
- [wasmedge](https://github.com/WasmEdge/WasmEdge) besides provide support for [several platforms](https://wasmedge.org/docs/category/supported-platforms) is working on wasm AOT fro android and ios
- https://github.com/WasmEdge/WasmEdge/issues/2621
### Proposal
Track the clearing of technical blocker for a `wasm` implementation
and if/when these blockers are cleared resume/re-work the deprecated [package:wasm](https://pub.dev/packages/wasm)
