It is unfortunate that this package targets non-free; it means that
every reverse dependency must be in non-free as well.  Looking at your
debian/copyright:

Is there a package in Debian (main) that can be used to produce this
.wasm file from the available source code?  If there is, you simply
have to make sure that this is always done at build time and the
problem would be solved.

A poor Debian decision regarding the RFCs but this kind of problem is
usually solved by repacking the tarball without them and adding a
+dfsg suffix.
