1//! SPEC §6.7 — public-inputs serialization (Fr encoding).
2//!
3//! This module is the load-bearing interop point between issuers and
4//! verifiers across languages. Any deviation here causes silent
5//! verification failures elsewhere. The procedure mirrors the
6//! Python SDK's `inherence.binding` and the issuer's encoding inside
7//! `zk_compiler::zk::binding_hash_to_fr`.
