Description
The design documents describe wasm32 as supporting memory up to 4 GiB in size. While a 32-bit underlying platform would not be able to efficiently support such a size, a 64-bit one theoretically could, and it seems unnecessary for the spec to prohibit it.
Of course, there are reasons why this might be awkward for some 64-bit implementations too, but they would not be required to support the full 4 GiB range if they were unable to, as available resources are always subject to implementation and environment limitations.
Currently, memory.wast in the testsuite has a test which tests that "memory size must be less than 65536 pages (4GiB)". I propose modifying the test to test for "less than or equal to 65536" instead.
