Contracts - Add settle_commitment alias matching backend method name for compatibility

Description

The backend src/lib/backend/services/contracts.ts invokes settle_commitment, but the contract exposes release. Add a settle_commitment(commitment_id, caller) entrypoint in contracts/escrow/src/lib.rs that performs the matured release, aligning the on-chain ABI with the backend's expectations.

Requirements and context

• Must be secure, tested, and documented
• Should be efficient and easy to review
• Add settle_commitment delegating to the release logic
• Return a settlement result shape the backend can parse
• Keep release for permissionless matured settlement
• Add tests in contracts/escrow/src/test.rs for the alias

Suggested execution

• Fork the repo and create a branch
• git checkout -b feature/settle-commitment-alias
• Implement changes
  • Add settle_commitment in contracts/escrow/src/lib.rs
  • Add tests in contracts/escrow/src/test.rs
  • Document the ABI alignment in contracts/README.md
  • Add cross-reference comments to the backend method
• Test and commit
  • Run tests, cover edge cases
  • Include test output and notes

Example commit message

feat: add settle_commitment entrypoint matching backend ABI

Guidelines

• Minimum 95 percent test coverage
• Clear documentation
• Timeframe: 96 hours
