Patch release upgrading to Wasmtime 44 and fixing a pooling allocator crash, plus new glibc builds for GPU workloads on Linux.

• breakingTest Wasmtime 44 upgrade in staging before rolling to production

  Wasmtime 44 is a major version bump for the underlying runtime. While wasmCloud wraps it, Wasmtime releases frequently carry behavior changes in memory handling, WASI interfaces, or component model semantics. Validate your component workloads in a non-production environment before upgrading clusters.

• securityUpgrade if you hit pooling allocator crashes — the fix prevents silent failures

  The pooling allocator was being enabled without checking whether the host hardware actually supports it, which could cause runtime crashes or unpredictable memory behavior. If you've seen wash-runtime instability on certain host types, this fix directly addresses that. Upgrade and monitor memory allocation behavior post-deploy.

• enhancementGPU workloads on Linux now have proper glibc builds — start testing if relevant

  If you're running or planning wasmCloud workloads that touch GPU features on Linux, the new glibc builds resolve compatibility issues with standard Linux distributions that expect dynamically linked runtimes. Pull the new artifacts and validate against your target GPU host environment.
