Research direction

Start at the content published at https://webassembly.github.io/threads and compare its atomic RMW instruction names with the naming selected in WebAssembly/spec issue 884. Update the outdated i32.atomic.rmw8_u.add references to i32.atomic.rmw8.add_u and verify the page no longer uses the old names.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

The content at https://webassembly.github.io/threads uses the i32.atomic.rmw8_u.add names rather than the new i32.atomic.rmw8.add_u names chosen here.
