…port

Implements a comprehensive async/await system for WRT that works across
std, no_std+alloc, and pure no_std environments with complete feature parity.

Key features:
- Simple async executor with fallback implementation
- Component Model async types (future<T>, stream<T>, error-context)
- Bridge between Component Model async and Rust Future trait
- Optional feature flags for gradual adoption
- Zero dependencies for fallback executor
- Full no_std compatibility

Components added:
- async_executor_simple: Minimal executor for immediate-ready futures
- async_types: Component Model async primitives (future, stream, error-context)
- async_bridge: Bridge Component Model async ↔ Rust async/await
- Comprehensive documentation and examples
- Feature flags: async-api, component-model-async

The implementation provides a foundation for plugging in external executors
like Embassy (embedded), tokio (desktop), or custom implementations while
maintaining a working fallback that requires no external dependencies.

All configurations compile successfully:
- Pure no_std (fallback executor only)
- no_std + alloc (enables Box-based future handling)
- std (full compatibility with existing async ecosystems)

Documentation includes technical integration guide, practical examples,
and migration patterns for different deployment scenarios.
Removes duplicate and redundant test files across all crates and consolidates
them into a unified testing structure in wrt-tests.

Changes:
- Remove duplicate no_std_compatibility_test.rs from all crates
- Remove redundant memory safety tests scattered across crates
- Remove parser test duplicates from wrt-component and wrt-decoder
- Consolidate all tests into wrt-tests integration test structure
- Update wrt-tests to provide centralized test organization

This consolidation improves:
- Test maintenance (single location for similar tests)
- Build performance (fewer duplicate test compilations)
- Test clarity (organized by functionality, not crate boundaries)
- CI efficiency (unified test execution strategy)

All functionality is preserved through the consolidated test structure
in wrt-tests/integration/.
Extends wrt-format with comprehensive Component Model format support,
including improved WIT parsing, enhanced type handling, and better
resource management.

Key improvements:
- Enhanced WIT parser with complete Component Model type support
- Improved binary format handling for component serialization
- Extended conversion utilities for component-to-module transformations
- Better streaming support for large component processing
- Enhanced type store with component type caching
- Improved version handling for Component Model versioning
- Better resource handle management for component instantiation

Features added:
- Component Model type system integration
- Advanced WIT parsing with error recovery
- Streaming component deserialization
- Component composition support
- Enhanced validation for component formats
- Improved compression for component binaries

This establishes wrt-format as the central hub for all WebAssembly
format processing, supporting both core WebAssembly modules and
WebAssembly Component Model components.
Extends the async system with a comprehensive pluggable executor framework
that supports external executor integration while maintaining the simple
fallback executor.

Key features:
- WrtExecutor trait for external executor implementations
- Global executor registry with thread-safe initialization
- Support for Box-based future types in alloc environments
- Conditional compilation for pure no_std vs alloc environments
- Advanced waker system for proper async notification
- Comprehensive error handling for executor operations

This provides the foundation for integrating with:
- Embassy executor for embedded systems
- Tokio runtime for desktop applications
- Custom executors for specialized environments

The implementation maintains full compatibility with the simple async
executor while providing the infrastructure needed for production
async workloads in resource-constrained environments.
Major reorganization and expansion of the documentation structure to improve
developer experience and provide comprehensive guidance for all use cases.

Key changes:
- Restructured documentation hierarchy with clear developer vs user sections
- Added comprehensive developer guides for build system, testing, and tooling
- Enhanced platform-specific guides with practical examples
- Improved getting started documentation with better onboarding flow
- Added detailed internals documentation for contributors

- User guides (installation, quickstart, tutorials)
- Enhanced API documentation with examples

Structure improvements:
- Clear separation between user-facing and developer documentation
- Consistent formatting and navigation across all sections
- Better cross-referencing between related topics
- Improved discoverability of relevant information

This establishes a solid foundation for comprehensive project documentation
that scales with the project's complexity while remaining accessible to
new contributors and users.
Restructures wrt-platform examples and templates to provide better
organization and more comprehensive platform support guidance.

Changes:
- Reorganized examples into clear platform-specific categories
- Added comprehensive README with usage guidance
- Created modular template system for external platform integration
- Improved VxWorks support with separate LKM and RTP examples
- Enhanced external platform templates with complete implementations

New structure:
- examples/platforms/ - Platform-specific example implementations
- examples/concepts/ - Conceptual examples for learning platform abstraction
- templates/external_platform/ - Complete templates for new platform support

Improvements:
- Better separation between example and template code
- More comprehensive VxWorks examples (LKM vs RTP)
- Modular template components (memory, sync, core platform)
- Enhanced documentation for each example
- Clearer onboarding path for new platform implementers

This provides developers with clear guidance on how to add support
for new platforms while maintaining consistency with existing
platform abstractions.

Finalizes the test consolidation by moving remaining runtime-specific tests
to the centralized test structure and simplifies the documentation build
pipeline.

Runtime changes:
- Remove duplicated safe_memory_test.rs (consolidated in wrt-tests)
- Add test reference files for migration tracking
- Ensure all runtime-specific test functionality is preserved

Xtask changes:
- Simplify docs pipeline configuration
- Remove redundant build steps
- Improve pipeline efficiency and maintainability
- Better error handling in documentation generation

This completes the test reorganization effort, ensuring all test
functionality is preserved while eliminating duplication and
improving maintainability of both test and build infrastructure.
Updates workspace-level configuration and removes outdated status reports
that are no longer relevant after the async implementation and test
consolidation.

Changes:
- Update CONTRIBUTING.md with improved contribution guidelines
- Update README.md with current project status
- Update Cargo.toml workspace configuration for new async features
- Update Cargo.lock with latest dependency resolution
- Remove outdated NOSTD_COMPATIBILITY_STATUS.md and NOSTD_FINAL_REPORT.md
- Remove remaining duplicate test files from main wrt crate

This finalizes the workspace configuration to reflect the current state
of the project with async support, consolidated testing, and improved
documentation structure.
The security-audit job uses actions-rs/audit-check@v1 which requires
write permissions to create issues or comments. Added necessary
permissions to the workflow to fix 'Resource not accessible by
integration' error.
- Ignore RUSTSEC-2024-0384 for unmaintained instant crate (transitive dependency)
- Add Zlib and Unicode-3.0 licenses to allowed list
