Problem

walt-cli package when linking multiple .walt files together can "wrap" the modules in a stand-alone JS module. The resulting module is too large because it serialized the dependency tree with the AST information encoded directly into the output, resulting in a massive amount of js.

Encoding the dependencies into the file is done to ensure the module can be used stand-alone in browser or node. Only the opcodes objects should be necessary for each module.

Goal

Patch the cli wrap function to result in a stripped down version of the modules (without AST information) which can still build but only include the bare minimum buffers in the resulting JS module.

Notes

• https://github.com/ballercat/walt/blob/master/packages/walt-cli/src/wrap.js - wrap logic
• https://github.com/ballercat/walt/blob/master/packages/walt-buildtools/src/index.js#L157 - the "build" method which consumes the stringified tree structure to create a run-able Wasm module.
