Description

Problem*

zkSync reported that modexp should be an EVM precompile required for Barretenberg's Solidity verifier, but it is not currently documented.

Summary*

This PR supplements documentation of modexp being required, alongside minor wording updates on the section to improve readability.

Additional Context

The Barretenberg team advised the opcode is used for field inversions.

Documentation*

Check one:

  • No documentation needed.
  • Documentation included in this PR.
  • [For Experimental Features] Documentation to be submitted in a separate PR.

PR Checklist*

  • I have tested the changes locally.
  • I have formatted the changes with Prettier and/or cargo fmt on default settings.
