ACE circuit codegen for Plonky3-based Miden AIRs.
Documentation
//! ACE circuit codegen for Plonky3-based Miden AIRs.
//!
//! The pipeline is:
//! 1. Capture AIR constraints via plonky3's `SymbolicAirBuilder`.
//! 2. Lower symbolic expressions into a DAG that mirrors verifier constraints evaluation.
//! 3. Emit an ACE circuit plus an `InputLayout` describing the MASM ACE-READ section order.
//!
//! The resulting circuit is intended to run inside the recursive verifier. All
//! input layout decisions (point-major OOD ordering, aux/quotient coords, and
//! alpha/beta randomness expansion) are centralized in this crate so tests can
//! validate both layout and evaluation.
//!
//! Quick start:
//! ```ignore
//! use miden_ace_codegen::{AceConfig, LayoutKind, build_ace_circuit_for_air};
//! use miden_air::ProcessorAir;
//! use miden_core::{Felt, field::QuadFelt};
//!
//! let config = AceConfig { num_quotient_chunks: 8, num_aux_inputs: 14, layout: LayoutKind::Masm };
//! let circuit = build_ace_circuit_for_air::<_, Felt, QuadFelt>(&ProcessorAir, config)?;
//! ```
//!
//! Module map (data flow):
//! - `pipeline`: public entry points that orchestrate layout + DAG + circuit emission.
//! - `dag`: verifier-style DAG IR and lowering helpers.
//! - `circuit`: off-VM circuit representation (inputs/constants/ops/root).
//! - `layout`: READ-section layout and index mapping.
//! - `encode`: ACE stream encoding + padding rules.
//! - `randomness`: challenge input planning for layouts + DAG lowering.
//! - `quotient`: barycentric quotient recomposition helpers (used by DAG + tests).

// Core IR and lowering.
