This PR uses the infrastructure from the following to add Wasm contract calls

This PR relies on

Additionally, this PR

  • Introduces the first hostios, call_contract and read_return_data, to use the new wasmer 3.2 FunctionEnvMut::data_and_store_mut function for returning both an env and store.
  • Makes errors more forgiving by treating hard errors as simple reverts. No longer will panicking or otherwise unnaturally suspending execution take all your gas.
  • Makes errors better align with the EVM by returning standard strings such as vm.ErrExecutionReverted.
  • Fixes a minor bug where Arbitrator would label hard errors as reverts. This doesn't matter since error codes aren't part of consensus, but this improves devex.

Would be useful to add documentation to this function, specifically regarding what the error result contains. In the case the unsafe call to read_return_data fails, what will be included in outs?

Great idea, I've added some documentation :)

If read_return_data fails, then execution will halt before resuming client execution. So from the user's perspective, this isn't something they need to worry about unless they edit the crate to call read_return_data directly. I've still added a comment on that extern just in case though

};

let contract = env.read_bytes20(contract)?;
let input = env.read_slice(calldata, calldata_len)?;

It feels sensible to check the max calldata size here before we do this read operation

I've added a charge for the bytes, so this should be safe now.

However, we likely need to make the Rust => Go data copy lazy to avoid both DOS and uncontrollable gas costs.

gas -= baseCost
gas = gas - gas/64

Perhaps need validation that this is safe

Nice catch, added a check
