Expose wasm_runtime_call_indirect (#1969)

The function has been there for long. While what it does look a bit unsafe
as it calls a function which may be not wasm-wise exported explicitly, it's
useful and widely used when implementing callback-taking APIs, including
our pthread_create's implementation.

/**
* Call a function reference of a given WASM runtime instance with
* arguments.

* Note: this can be used to call a function which is not exported
* by the module explicitly. You might consider it as an abstraction
* violation.
*
* @param exec_env the execution environment to call the function
* which must be created from wasm_create_exec_env()
* @param element_index the function reference index, usually
* prvovided by the caller of a registed native function
* @param argc the number of arguments
* @param argv the arguments. If the function method has return value,
* the first (or first two in case 64-bit return value) element of
* argv stores the return value of the called WASM function after this
* function returns.
*
* @return true if success, false otherwise and exception will be thrown,
* the caller can call wasm_runtime_get_exception to get exception info.
