Jakob Gruber 802a86a4df [heap] Do not visit the dispatch table
Now that builtins are embedded into the binary unconditionally, GC
visitation can be reduced. The interpreter dispatch table points
directly at embedded instruction starts. It is initialized once in
Isolate::Init, and its contents are immutable afterwards.
Visitation by GC is not needed.

Drive-by: Remove outdated comment on IsWasmRuntimeStub.
