Pull Request: Peer-to-Peer Energy Sharing Smart Contract

---

📌 Description

This PR implements a complete peer-to-peer energy sharing smart contract that enables direct energy transactions between prosumers on the Stellar network using Soroban. The contract facilitates decentralized energy sharing with secure payment settlement, smart meter verification, and comprehensive transaction tracking.

📌 Type of Change

• Documentation (updates to docs or comments)
• Bug fix (non-breaking change fixing issues)
• New feature (adds peer-to-peer energy sharing functionality)
• Breaking change

---

🎯 Motivation and Context

This PR addresses the growing need for decentralized energy trading platforms that enable prosumers (both producers and consumers) to share energy directly without intermediaries. The implementation provides:

• Direct P2P Trading: Bilateral energy sharing agreements between prosumers
• Smart Meter Integration: Energy delivery verification with meter readings
• Secure Payments: Automatic settlement using Stellar tokens
• Regulatory Compliance: Energy trading regulation compliance features
• Dispute Resolution: Built-in mechanisms for handling delivery discrepancies
