//! Range Checker Main Trace Constraints
//!
//! This module contains main trace constraints for the range checker component:
//! - Boundary constraints: V[0] = 0, V[last] = 65535
//! - Transition constraint: V column changes by powers of 3 or stays constant (for padding)
//!
//! Bus constraints for the range checker are in `bus`.
