runtime, sycall/js: add support for callbacks from JavaScript

This commit adds support for JavaScript callbacks back into
WebAssembly. This is experimental API, just like the rest of the
syscall/js package. The time package now also uses this mechanism
to properly support timers without resorting to a busy loop.

JavaScript code can call into the same entry point multiple times.
The new RUN register is used to keep track of the program's
run state. Possible values are: starting, running, paused and exited.
If no goroutine is ready any more, the scheduler can put the
program into the "paused" state and the WebAssembly code will
stop running. When a callback occurs, the JavaScript code puts
the callback data into a queue and then calls into WebAssembly
to allow the Go code to continue running.
