Fixes from Common Prefix audit of the Plonk verifier contract (#1962)

* fix: bug on lagrange coeff computation (#1639)

* Fix the edge case when zeta is one of the evaluation domain elements, and our lagrange coefficient (and also pi_poly_eval) is computed incorrectly.
Tests are also added for these rare edge cases.

* Update script to run gas benchmarks (#1769)

* Update script to run gas benchmarks. Store gas benchmarks for this commit.
* Update lint.yml as CI is complaining.

* Use addmod in function _computeLinPolyConstantTerm. (#1770)

* Point to branch 'commonprefix-patch of solidity-bn254 repository

* use forge snapshot for gas benchmark instead

* chore: update hotshot to 0.1.60, most jf dep to 0.4.5 (#1788)

* refactor!: use big endian and simplify transcript logic (#1801)

* fix transcript and tests

* fix computeChallenges in verifier

* update gas benchmark

* further improve and add comment to inline assembly

* Fix comment in `_linearizationScalarsAndBases` (#1812)

* Fix comment in _linearizationScalarsAndBases.

* Update contracts/src/libraries/PlonkVerifier.sol
