-And a metering function `$meter`. The meter function has a signature of `(type (func (param i64)))`. Internally this function should keep a running sum and if that sum grows larger than a given threshold, end the program's execution. The metering function can be imbedded in the binary itself or can use wasm's import to define it externally.
