Robin Freyler e02c5204b3 Update Wasm benchmarks (#2957)
In https://github.com/paritytech/polkadot-sdk/pull/2941 we found out
that the new Wasmi (register) is very effective at optimizing away
certain benchmark bytecode constructs in a way that created an unfair
advantage over Wasmi (stack) which yielded our former benchmarks to be
ineffective at properly measuring the performance impact.

This PR adjusts both affected benchmarks to fix the stated problems.
Affected are
- `instr_i64const` -> `instr_i64add`: Renamed since it now measures the
performance impact of the Wasm `i64.add` instruction with locals as
inputs and outputs. This makes it impossible for Wasmi (register) to
aggressively optimize away the entire function body (as it previously
did) but still provides a way for Wasmi (register) to shine with its
register based execution model.
- `call_with_code_per_byte`: Now uses `local.get` instead of `i32.const`
for the `if` condition which prevents Wasmi (register) to aggressively
optimizing away whole parts of the `if` creating an unfair advantage.

Substrate is a next-generation framework for blockchain innovation 🚀.

Getting Started

Head to docs.substrate.io and follow the installation instructions. Then try out one of the tutorials. Refer to the Docker instructions to quickly run Substrate, Substrate Node Template, Subkey, or to build a chain spec.

Community & Support

Join the highly active and supportive community on the Substrate Stack Exchange to ask questions about use and problems you run into using this software. Please do report bugs and issues here for anything you suspect requires action in the source.

Contributions & Code of Conduct

Please follow the contributions guidelines as outlined in docs/contributor/CONTRIBUTING.md. In all communications and contributions, this project follows the Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct.

Security

The security policy and procedures can be found in docs/contributor/SECURITY.md.

License

The reason for the split-licensing is to ensure that for the vast majority of teams using Substrate to create feature-chains, then all changes can be made entirely in Apache2-licensed code, allowing teams full freedom over what and how they release and giving licensing clarity to commercial teams.

In the interests of the community, we require any deeper improvements made to Substrate's core logic (e.g. Substrate's internal consensus, crypto or database code) to be contributed back so everyone can benefit.
