IMHO, we can pull this after +1 version. I think I had only one nit
(one character to a struct name it was), and I've been testing this
series *extensively* with real-world code (wasm run-time that we are
developing), so I'm confident that  it is *good enough*.

Reinette, for the EMODT patch, as long as you fix the struct name
you can add my reviewed-by and also tested-by to that patch before
you send it! It's so narrow change.

BR, Jarkko
