The short version

What changed, and why it matters

This commit is a routine build update for the Zcash parts of the Keystone 3 firmware. It switches several Rust libraries from using specific GitHub revisions to using published versions from crates.io, and bumps a few version numbers. There is no direct evidence in the commit that this fixes a security vulnerability. It is primarily a dependency-maintenance change.

Recommended action

Treat as a normal dependency hygiene update. Review the release notes of the updated Zcash crates (pczt 0.8.0-rc.1, orchard 0.15.1, zcash_primitives 0.29.0, etc.) and the ur-registry SDK revision 4131bae5 for any security fixes. Run the existing Zcash test suite and verify reproducible builds after the lockfile change.
