It looks like you need the cmake crate to build wasmtime-c-api now?

So is it time to use CMake as our build system?

Now that bytecodealliance/wasmtime#9102 is merged and wasmtime v23.0.2 is released, it should be possible to use 23.0.2 as the version for wasmtime without requiring any build setup changes.

...except for adding the cmake crate as a dependency.

I'm afraid I don't have the context here. cmake crate is a transitive dependency, yes, but it does not need to be added to the Cargo.toml of this project. Perhaps more relevant is that the cmake binary has to be installed on the build system. Is this going to continue to be a blocker for tree-sitter upgrading?

That is what Max was concerned about, yes. It's not a problem for CI since GitHub runners have cmake preinstalled.
