This commit stabilizes the wasm atomic intrinsics now that the threads
proposal has advanced to Stage 4, and is shipping in browsers.
Unfortunately these intrinsics still aren't available through the
precompiled versions of the standard library because atomics are no
This commit also updates the availability and documentation of theseintrinsics to reflect how they're always available, but they probably
won't work as expected unless shared memory is used (which isn't enabled
by default). This reflects a change in the threads proposal from the
last year or so where the instructions validate without requiring a
shared memory.
