Set soroban-sdk version to major only in new contracts (#2297)

leighmcculloch · web-flow · commit 496dbcf56f52 · 2025-11-19T05:13:35.000-08:00
### What
Change soroban-sdk dependency version from "23.0.2" to "23" in the
contract workspace template Cargo.toml.

  ### Why
When creating new projects a developer probably wants to use the latest
available soroban-sdk for the supported major version. Specifying 23.0.2
means only the latest 23.0.x version will be used.
