Merge #4008

4008: Updates toolchain to a more recent 2023-03-25 r=mpapierski a=mpapierski

This bumps a toolchain for contract API to more recent 2023-03-25. This is not the most recent, as the current nightly appears to produce non-mvp WebAssembly opcodes which are not supported on our platform. Apparently this version update also decerases gas cost on average in our tests.
