Remove Type::externref and HeapType::ext and replace them with uses of
anyref and any, respectively, now that we have unified these types in the GC
proposal. For backwards compatibility, continue to parse extern and
externref and maintain their relevant C API functions.

The GC proposal has split `any` and `extern` back into two separate types, so
reintroduce `HeapType::ext` to represent `extern`. Before it was originally
removed in #4633, externref was a subtype of anyref, but now it is not. Now that
we have separate heaptype type hierarchies, make `HeapType::getLeastUpperBound`
fallible as well.
