Description
Hello again - I had some success running Ruby code in an online page,
as you can see on ://ruby.assembled.app.
This is good progress, and I'm now curious if there is an approach
for requiring ruby gem libraries inside the .wasm package,
so my code can use helpers such as 1.second and "hello".titlecase,
among others.
I recognize some libraries including C extensions, such as Nokogiri,
are unlikely to be runnable inside .wasm unless specially compiled.
For non-C gems, I'm curious if there is a non-compilation approach,
though if compiling a new .wasm binary is necessary, I'd be glad for directions.

Research direction
Start with the .wasm package and the gem-loading question described in the issue, comparing ordinary Ruby gems with gems that include C extensions. The work is complete when a supported approach, compilation requirements, and known limitations are clearly documented or the capability is implemented and demonstrated.
