[Contract] Implement Decentralized Identity (DID) Registry

🚀 Feature Overview

Build a robust DID registry contract that allows students to register, update, and resolve their decentralized identities on-chain, compliant with W3C standards.

This is a complex, MVP-critical feature designed to elevate the smart contract architecture and expand the educational modules of the Web3 Student Lab platform.

🛠️ Implementation Requirements

• Implement key rotation and revocation mechanisms.\n- Ensure gas-efficient storage of identity attributes.\n- Add proxy support for delegated identity management.

🔧 Technical Specifications

• Language/Environment: Rust / Soroban (or Solidity if specifically bridging).
• Adherence to strict architectural boundaries and gas optimization.
• High test coverage requirements (>90% unit testing in Rust).
• Prevent common vectors: Reentrancy, Integer Overflow/Underflow, and Oracle Manipulation.

✅ Acceptance Criteria

• Contract implemented according to requirements.
• Comprehensive unit and integration tests passing.
• Security review completed (no critical vulnerabilities).
• Comprehensive documentation written using NatSpec/Rustdoc.

🎓 Difficulty Level

Advanced - Requires deep understanding of Web3 security, cryptography, and smart contract design patterns.
