Accelerate R1CSShape::multiply_vec_uniform about lasso

[sragss]

Current thinking is that we can use some preprocessing on the uniform A, B, C matrices to determine what they'll end up reading and writing.

A given sparse entry's column in {A, B, C} determines which padded_trace_length segment of the witness z will be read. All entries from a given row will write to the same section of the output vecs {A, B, C}z.

Currently we parallelize across rows because it is easy:

• The sparse matrices Vec<(row, col, val)> are ordered by (row, col), therefore rows are already grouped together
• Bc all entries from a row write to the same mutable slice of the output vecs {A, B, C}z, it's easy to group them in parallel

My thinking is that we can instead group by column, which would allow preprocessing the witness segment z and better cache hits on the witness segment z.

Here's the column accesses by the different sparse small M matrices {A, B, C}:

If these do not intersect with the rows too much we could get good speedups switching the direction of parallelism.

Further, 50-90% of the values in the full_witness_vector that are accessed are zero. We don't pay too bad for this because mul_0_1_optimized, but still we'd read and write less if we handle this more intelligently.

result.iter_mut().enumerate().for_each(|(i, out)| {
    *out += mul_0_1_optimized(&val, &full_witness_vector[witness_offset + i]);
});
