(transferred from ProvableHQ#6, and asking @d0cd for a review as suggested there)

The Sanitizer is used very prominently in our parsing functions, and it is also a source of many allocations, most of which are temporary and avoidable.

The potential perf improvements are quite large, and I've measured them both with a 15-minute run of a --dev node and using hyperfine on a small binary that parsed all the valid .aleo programs currently present in the snarkVM codebase.

dev node:

  • all allocs are down ~15%, of which almost all are temporary
  • in Program::from_str specifically, allocs are reduced by ~64%, of which temp allocs ~88%

parsing all .aleo programs using Program::from_str:

  • allocs are reduced by ~41%
  • growth reallocs are down ~70%
  • runtime is reduced by ~31%

@ljedrz Could you fix the cargo fmt issue and rerun CI?

The fmt issue doesn't come from this PR, but seems to be caused by the new nightly compiler, meaning it would happen in all the other PRs as well. While I recommend it to be handled in its own PR, this is a new CI branch for this one.
