D-4: WebAssembly (WASM) Support for Browser Execution

[Nanle-code]

Compile StarForge core functionality to WebAssembly to enable browser-based execution. This will allow developers to use StarForge directly in web-based IDEs and development environments.

Proposed Changes:

• Add wasm-bindgen and wasm-pack to build process
• Create WASM-compatible API surface
• Implement browser storage for configuration
• Add web-based CLI interface
• Create browser-compatible wallet management

Acceptance Criteria:

• Core functionality compiles to WASM
• Browser-based wallet management works
• Web interface for common operations
• Performance acceptable in browser
• Documentation for web usage

Priority: Medium
Complexity: Large
Labels: enhancement, wasm, web

Hi, my name is Precious Igwealor, and I am a fullstack and smart contract developer skilled in React, Next.js, JavaScript, TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, and Soroban. For this task, I will:

1. Integrate wasm-bindgen and wasm-pack into the StarForge build process, create a WASM-compatible API surface exposing core functionality via #[wasm_bindgen] exports, and implement browser storage (localStorage/IndexedDB) as the configuration persistence layer replacing filesystem-based config.
2. Build a browser-compatible wallet management layer handling key generation, signing, and account operations within WASM constraints, ensuring no Node.js-specific APIs are referenced in the WASM compilation target.
3. Implement a web-based CLI interface that maps common StarForge operations to browser UI interactions, providing a usable development experience inside web-based IDEs and environments.
4. Verify core functionality compiles cleanly to WASM with acceptable browser performance, and document the web usage setup including wasm-pack build commands, bundle integration steps, and browser wallet management API reference.

ETA: 10 hours
