Remove a copy being made of wasm modules (bytecodealliance#1877)

* Remove a copy being made of wasm modules

This commit removes a copy performed when the input file is WebAssembly
when parsing input files on the CLI. This happened due to the
implementation of `Cow::to_owned` but isn't necessary since we have the
original owned copy around to return that instead.
