chore: prepare ScheduledValueChange for mutable delays. (#6085)
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Part of #5493. This lays some of the groundwork by making
`ScheduledValueChange` not have an immutable delay. The only user of
this struct is `SharedMutable` however, which does (so far) have
immutable delays, so there's no functionality changes.

// This data structure is used by SharedMutable to represent a value that changes from `pre` to `post` at some block
// called the `block_of_change`. The value can only be made to change by scheduling a change event at some future block
// of change after some delay measured in blocks has elapsed. This means that at any given block number we know both the
// current value and the smallest block number at which the value might change - this is called the 'block horizon'.
//
// The delay being a type parameter instead of a struct field is an implementation detail, and is due to a number of
// reasons:
// - we want to serialize and deserialize this object in order to store it in public storage, but we don't want to
// include the delay there because it is immutable
// - because of how aztec-nr state variables are declared, having a type with some immutable property is better
// expressed via types, since they are always constructed with the same `::new(context, storage_slot)` function.
