This commit updates the behavior of `wasm-tools component link` to search for the `cabi_realloc` function in the main module, if present. This behavior fixes an issue when linking shared libraries where each shared library was required to export its own `cabi_realloc` which otherwise doesn't happen by default when using wasi-sdk for example. By falling back to the main module that preserves the originally intended semantics, one definition of `cabi_realloc`, and these situations should work by default now.
