What
Refresh the smart contract getting-started documentation for the soroban-sdk 26.1.0 release by bringing the Hello World dependency example up to the current major version and documenting how to convert a
BytesN<N>into a native fixed-size[u8; N]array.Why
The Hello World guide pinned
soroban-sdk = "22", four major versions behind the released crate, so developers following the quickstart started against a stale SDK; and theBytesN<N>to[u8; N]conversion, exercised and optimized in the 26.1.0 release (rs-soroban-sdk#1903), had no entry in the conversions guide despite being a routine operation when working with hashes and keys. Deeper 26.1.0 changes that warrant their own pages are tracked separately in stellar-docs#2480.
