Research direction

Compare the host-module registration entry points in Rust and NodeJS, focusing on where the automatic "host:" prefix is applied. Resolve the intended consistent behavior and verify that both registration paths use the same prefix policy.

Description

lifecycle/needs-review

More bikeshedding: Do we want to add the "host:" prefix? If we do, should we also add it on the rust impl?

Currently host modules registered from NodeJS get an automatic "host:" prefix, while modules registered from Rust do not. We should unify the behaviour in one way or the other.
