Stephan Herhut b344f31cde [wasm] Commit code space eagerly when profiling
Under normal execution, we commit code space in page chunks as we
need it. However, this confuses linux perf, as it generates mmap
events in the trace that seem to override the synthetic ones that
are inserted by perf inject.

Instead, when profiling with perf, we now commit the maximum code
space size upfront, leading to a single mmap event early on. While
this significantly increases memory use, it should not impact
profiling of running wasm code.
