Specification
https://github.com/WebAssembly/branch-hinting/blob/main/proposals/branch-hinting/Overview.md
Description
A new section in Wasm modules containing likelihood hints for branch instructions, allowing engines to generate more optimal code.
To be in line with other Wasm features, I expect that the name will be
wasm-branch-hinting.yml. The group is"webassembly".Documentation
