Smart Contracts on Akash AEP-78

[brewsterdrinkwater]

This AEP proposes enabling CosmWasm smart contract functionality on Akash Network to unlock programmable decentralized cloud infrastructure, enabling automated resource management, advanced settlement mechanisms, and on-chain governance capabilities. This enhancement leverages Pyth Network as a price oracle to support AEP-76's Burn Mint Equilibrium (BME) mechanism and extends Akash's capabilities beyond simple compute marketplaces into a fully programmable cloud platform.
