Example should have performance numbers and comparisons

I'm doing some benchmarking, and while this might be apples to oranges,

1. Invoking quickjs as a wasmtime precompiled using --eval console.log('hello world') 1000 times takes approx 7-8s
2. Invoking the hello-world.js embedding in the example 1000 times takes approx 80s or maybe 10x as much time.

time for x in `seq 1 1000`; do wasmtime --allow-precompiled  quickcheck.cwasm --eval "console.log('hello world')"; done

real	0m7.849s
user	0m3.077s
sys	0m6.752s

$ time for x in `seq 1 1000`; do ./target/release/wasmtime-test > /dev/null; done

real	1m21.672s
user	0m45.470s
sys	0m38.263s

Using https://gitlab.com/api/v4/projects/47807501/packages/generic/js_interpreters/0.0.1/cweb_quickcheck.wasm for the example.

It would be good to understand better what performance we can expect and how to benchmark against other options.

Make sure to check with the --enableAot / enableAot option for ComponentizeJS here which uses https://github.com/bytecodealliance/weval.

Benchmarking for StarlingMonkey in general is tracking in bytecodealliance/StarlingMonkey#102.
