How does the caller know whether wat2wasm succeeded? Is there a way to initialize a wasm_byte_vec_t to "clear" which the user can then test for? Or does it always check for errors with a separate "did the last thing fail" call after every call to wat2wasm?

That's a fair point, in this case I'd assume the user would initialize to null prior and check for that, but perhaps it makes more sense for us to zero the fields for them on failure

You can also use the return value if you like.
