Description

Problem*

Summary*

  • Implemented reference handling in brillig
  • Fixing a bug where the registers were not correctly restored if the callee function did memory allocs (lack of prev stack pointer register)
  • Avoided freeing memory by never reducing the stack pointer, to implement references without borrow checker / garbage collector

Documentation

  • This PR requires documentation updates when merged.

    • I will submit a noir-lang/docs PR.
    • I will request for and support Dev Rel's help in documenting this PR.

Additional Context

PR Checklist*

  • I have tested the changes locally.
  • I have formatted the changes with Prettier and/or cargo fmt on default settings.
