Description
The latest version of arkworks is 0.5 but we are still using 0.4 (in /creds). After updating to 0.5 we can use the official circom-compat module from arkworks, rather than the older version of it in forks/circom-compat. This will also mean the project will no longer depend on an old version of wasmer (via forks/circom-compat) so the project should build with the latest stable version of the Rust compiler. (currently the file creds/rust-toolchain sets the version to 1.88.0, since wasmer will not build with a newer version)

Research direction
Start in the /creds directory and inspect the dependency manifests alongside creds/rust-toolchain. Compare the current arkworks and forks/circom-compat usage with arkworks 0.5 and the official circom-compat module. Done means the old fork and wasmer dependency are no longer required and the project builds with the latest stable Rust compiler.
