The old functionality is readded as an `unsafe` method,
`WasmPtr::get_utf8_str`.
It's important to note that `WasmPtr::get_utf8_string` isn't _entirely_
sound and technically should be marked `unsafe` as well, but this change
is a massive improvement over what we had before.
For future reference, the reason `WasmPtr::get_utf8_string` still has some
soundness issues is that we can't guarantee exclusive access to the memory
while parsing in the string, we temporarily hold a `&[u8]` and hope it
doesn't get mutated. It's possible to implement this method in a more
correct way by copying each byte as we read it into a `Vec` and converting
that into a String.

This is required to do something like

use wasmer::{Cranelift, CraneliftOptLevel};
let mut compiler = Cranelift::default();
compiler.opt_level(CraneliftOptLevel::None);
let engine = JIT::new(compiler).engine();
// ...
```

1934: Point to `native` versions of functions in Function docs r=Hywan a=MarkMcCaskey
It's not obvious from looking at the docs for `Function` that there are native variants. This PR makes it clear that when users are figuring out how to make functions that they're shown the `native` variants.
