Telemetry

During the alpha, telemetry (specifically error logging to Sentry) is enabled by default. We send and record information such as IP address, operating system name and version, and the error/panic message. To disable it, run wasmer config set telemetry.enabled false or compile from source (the telemetry feature is disabled in the build by default).
