Add batch-size budget measurements for ReceiptAnchor verification and document the optimization for accensa#125.
The `build-wasm` job built the whole workspace for `wasm32v1-none`, including the `testutils` member, whose `soroban-sdk` dependency enables the `testutils` feature. That feature is not supported on wasm targets (`compile_error!` inside the SDK), so every wasm build failed before any contract code was compiled. Build with `--workspace --exclude testutils` so only the deployable contract crates are compiled for wasm.
The gate's verify_receipt baseline (569,906 CPU, measured 2026-08-26) predates the pure-WASM SHA-256 folding merged in accensa#250 (08-27), which moved hashing out of the host into WASM and legitimately raised the host CPU instruction count to ~780.8k while cutting WASM instructions. Update the baseline to the value measured on 2026-08-29 (deterministic across CI and local runs) so the gate reflects the current implementation while keeping its 15% headroom for toolchain drift.
Add batch-size budget measurements for ReceiptAnchor verification and document the optimization for accensa#125. Fold sorted-pair proofs in a single single-pass pure-WASM SHA-256 loop in both the router and shard, avoiding redundant proof buffering and host crypto roundtrips. Also raise the stale WASM size budgets to the deterministic current build sizes so the build-wasm check passes after accensa#250's pure-WASM SHA-256 changes.
