When calling native function from AOT code, current implementation is to return back to runtime to call aot_invoke_native, which calls wasm_runtime_invoke_native and the latter calls assembly code. We did it before as there may be pointer and string arguments to check and convert if the native function's registered signature has character '*' and '$'. As the built-in native function's signatures can be gotten in compilation time, we check the pointer/string arguments and convert them into native address in AOT code, and then invoke the native function directly, so as to improve performance.
