A library for generalized rank-one constraint systems

//! trace of GR1CS constraint generation. This is useful for debugging purposes.

///
/// The `ConstraintTrace` type implements `fmt::Display`, formatting the span
/// trace similarly to how Rust formats panics. For example:
///
/// ```text
///    0: gr1cs-std::bits::something
///           at gr1cs-std/src/bits/test.rs:42
///    1: gr1cs-std::bits::another_thing
