Since we have done testing regarding arithmetic correctness in https://github.com/near/libbf-test, in the same test suite for the C++'s boost.multiprecision library. We consider the JavaScript runtime is reasonably secure for DApps and even financial DApps. The project is therefore moving forward from the alpha stage.

This doesn't mean a formal audit or comprehensive testing of entire quickjs runtime, but it is an due diligence effort to ensure the most critical part: value-related calculation is well-tested. We will continue doing ourselves, seeking professional audit team and supporting community builders to increase the reliability and security of near-sdk-js.

The contributing parts at beginning of the doc is duplicate to the ## Contributing section later, so it's also removed.

This PR closes #312.

Should we update the QuckJS dep in this PR?

Good point! I checked the quickjs commit in this PR is the same as we used in near-sdk-js and it's ahead of the upstream quickjs, so it is fine.
