Velodrome Gas Optimization

Use ++ i instead of i++ to Save Gas

When using i++ this uses more gas since Solidity 0.8.0 due to the way the compiler handles incrementing in safemath. This is less efficient than using ++i which uses less gas because of how Solidity implements Safemath, even they though both accomplish the same thing within a for loop. The following lines' use of i++ can be replaced with ++i.

For example, take line 57 (Minter.sol) which utilizes i++ which can be made more efficient with the use of ++i instead

[line57] for (uint i = 0; i < claimants.length; i++)

alter this to

[line 57] for (uint i = 0; i < claimants.length; ++i)

There are many for loops through the code, so using ++i can add up substantially in gas. Replace i++ with ++i in the following lines.

footnote - consider declaring all public functions as payable as it shouldn't interfere with any functionality, but will remove a 5 gas runtime check for each call.
