/// Trait for integrating a garbage collector with the runtime.
///
/// This trait is responsible for:
///
/// * GC barriers used by runtime code (as opposed to compiled Wasm code)
///
/// * Creating and managing GC heaps for individual stores
///
/// * Running garbage collection
///
/// # Safety
///
/// The collector, its GC heaps, and GC barriers when taken together as a whole
/// must be safe. Additionally, they must work with the GC barriers emitted into
/// compiled Wasm code via the collector's corresponding `GcCompiler`
/// implementation. That is, if callers only call safe methods on this trait
/// (while pairing it with its associated `GcCompiler`, `GcHeap`, and etc...)
/// and uphold all the documented safety invariants of this trait's unsafe
/// methods, then it must be impossible for callers to violate memory
/// safety. Implementations of this trait may not add new safety invariants, not
/// already documented in this trait's interface, that callers need to uphold.
pub unsafe trait GcRuntime: 'static + Send + Sync {
    /// Construct a new GC heap.
    fn new_gc_heap(&self) -> Result<Box<dyn GcHeap>>;
}

/// A heap that manages garbage-collected objects.
///
/// Each `wasmtime::Store` is associated with a single `GcHeap`, and a `GcHeap`
/// is only ever used with one store at a time, but `GcHeap`s may be reused with
/// new stores after its original store is dropped. The `reset` method will be
/// called in between each such reuse. (This reuse allows for better integration
/// with the pooling allocator).
///
/// If a `GcHeap` mapped any memory, its `Drop` implementation should unmap that
/// memory.
///
/// # Safety
///
/// The trait methods below are all safe: implementations of this trait must
/// ensure that these methods cannot be misused to create memory unsafety. The
/// expectation is that -- given that `VMGcRef` is a newtype over an index --
/// implementations perform similar tricks as Wasm linear memory
/// implementations. The heap should internally be a contiguous region of memory
/// and `VMGcRef` indices into the heap must be bounds checked (explicitly or
/// implicitly via virtual memory tricks).
///
/// Furthermore, if heap corruption occurs because (for example) a `VMGcRef`
/// from a different heap is used with this heap, then that corruption must be
/// limited to within this heap. Every heap is a mini sandbox. It follows that
/// native pointers should never be written into or read out from the GC heap,
/// since that could spread corruption from inside the GC heap out to the native
/// host heap. The host data for an `externref`, therefore, is stored in a side
/// table (`ExternRefHostDataTable`) and never inside the heap. Only an id
/// referencing a slot in that table should ever be written into the GC heap.
///
/// These constraints give us great amounts of safety compared to working with
/// raw pointers. The worst that could happen is corruption local to heap and a
/// panic, or perhaps reading stale heap data from a previous Wasm instance. A
/// corrupt `GcHeap` can *never* result in the native host's corruption.
///
/// The downside is that we are introducing `heap_base + index` computations and
/// bounds checking to access GC memory, adding performance overhead. This is
/// deemed to be a worthy trade off. Furthermore, it isn't even a clear cut
/// performance degradation since this allows us to use 32-bit "pointers",
/// giving us more compact data representations and the improved cache
/// utilization that implies.
