* circom: add external_inputs

* adapt new external_inputs interface to the FoldingScheme trait and Nova impl

* adapt examples to new FCircuit external_inputs interface

* add state_len & external_inputs_len params to CircomFCircuit

* add examples/circom_full_flow.rs

* merge the params initializer functions, clippy

* circom: move r1cs reading to FCircuit::new instead of each step

* CI/examples: add circom so it can run the circom_full_flow example

* expose params & structs for external usage

* add full_flow example, move examples into 'examples' dir

* Add external inputs logic to F function/circuit. Add an example of usage with external inputs too.

* Add examples run into CI

* Add typos to CI

* Apply typos suggestions

* missing typos

* Fix Nova multi-elements state

In the AugmentedFCircuit the default value for the state when no input
is provided was `vec![F::zero()]`, which defaults to length `1`. So when
having more than 1 element in the state, before even starting to fold,
the circuit was already already failing.

Additionally this commit adds an example for a circuit with a state of 5
elements.
