chore: Merge back to master

[PhilWindle]

This PR is to bring the deployment changes back to master.

👍

[alexghr]

Ahh, does this mean we'll soon be able to push aztec-nargo from Github Actions instead of CircleCI?

[PhilWindle]

Should be able to yes.

Detailed results

All benchmarks are run on txs on the Benchmarking contract on the repository. Each tx consists of a batch call to create_note and increment_balance, which guarantees that each tx has a private call, a nested private call, a public call, and a nested public call, as well as an emitted private note, an unencrypted log, and public storage read and write.

This benchmark source data is available in JSON format on S3 here.
