Description

In the past we used UINT32 XOR and ADD lookup tables to ensure that UltraHonk! polynomials are not zero. This made the minimum size of the circuit 2^14. This PR adds a dummy table which can be used for the same purpose but only has 2 basic tables each consisting of just 4 entries. In addition I got rid of s_randomness in UltraHonkComposerHelper, which produced bugs, since we don't randomise the polynomials in the same way in Honk!

why was the -1 for previously?

We inserted a 1 at the end so that the polynomial would not be zero. Don't know why since we add randomness anyway

can you explain what this value is because the change looks arbitrary - maybe add comment as well

The change is because the multitable only works on 2-bit values, so 5 is too big

why do this two have to be equal - i understand that id is static while table_id can change depending on function (?)

We are using the same function in 2 places by templating it, but the API already includes the id in arguments. This is just a simple bug check to ensure that we don't use the wrong instantiation
