change constants to bytearray as g1/g2 elements are not in flat encoding

[perturbing]

Hi,

Since the flat encoding of plutus does not allow the direct use of G1/G2 elements, any script will have to use the byte array representation of their points.

Since this is the case, this lib needs to export their constants as byte arrays and not G1/G2 elements.

Hey, this is already handled by the compiler just fine. So no worries, the points are uncompressed at runtime and hoisted where needed to be in scope.

AH okay, that's cool :)

And so it automatically changes any g1 / g2 point to a call to bls12_381_{G1/G2}_uncompress? And I assume this is also done in the costing of scripts and tests?

Kind of, it's part of the normal costing a UPLC program. It's just that Aiken guarantees uncompress is called only once per element and hoisted as "global constants" throughout the rest of the UPLC progam. This is simply "invisible" to you as a developer.
