Topic: wasmtime / PR #7984 Remove the `WASI` submodule

alexcrichton opened PR #7984 from alexcrichton:no-wasi-submodule to bytecodealliance:main:

Historically the WASI submodule in this repository was used to pull the sources of the *.witx files for preview1. This has never been used by the wasmtime-wasi crate (which has its own copy in the crates/wasi/witx folder) and was only ever used by wasi-common. This submodule also served as a location for the witx crate itself.

Neither of these are really needed any more as the *.witx files are unlikely to ever really change again. This commit removes the submodule entirely, as well as the path dependency on witx, and copies the *.witx files in the same manner as the wasmtime-wasi crate.

wasmtime-wasi does use the witxs and wiggle to generate out its preview 1 module interface, but I agree the submodule should go :)
