https://go.dev/ref/mod#go-work-file advises against checking `go.work`
files because they can interfere with local development. We added the
workspace file in order to make `go test` and other tools work across
multiple modules. But it seems to cause weird issues with the
`go.work.sum` file being modified, etc.
So with this PR, we instead run all the `ci.go` commands for all modules
in the workspace manually.
ZKVMs are constrained environments that liberally allocate memory and
never release it. In this context, using the GC is only going to cause
issues down the road, and slow things down in any case.
Keeper is a zmvm guest program that runs the block transition.
It relies on the zkvm maker implementing `getInput`. For now, we only
provide a single implementation for the 'ziren' VM.
Why keeper?
In the _Mass Effect_ lore, the keepers are animals (?) who maintain the
citadel. Nothing is known from them, and attempts at tampering with them
have failed, as they self-destruct upon inquiry. They have a secret,
nefarious purpose that is only revealed later in the game series, don't
want any spoilers so I didn't dig deeper. All in all, a good metaphor
for zkvms.
