Provable.if in runtimeMethod does not work #26

Description

@dloghin

We discovered this issue during the ETHGlobal Singapore Hackathon.

Suppose we want to update a balance based on a certain amount, such that if amount > balance we top up the balance (balance += amount - balance), else we withdraw (balance -= balance - amount). We do this with provable if:

    const condition = amount.greaterThan(currBalance);
    const diff = Provable.if(
      condition,
      Balance,
      amount.sub(currBalance),
      currBalance.sub(amount)
    );
    const to = Provable.if(
      condition,
      PublicKey,
      address,
      addressPool
    );
    const from = Provable.if(
      condition,
      PublicKey,
      addressPool,
      address
    );
    const d = UInt64.Unsafe.fromField(diff.value);
    await this.transfer(tokenId, from, to, d);

(see balances.ts in my fork)

The test fails either when amount > balance or amount < balance. It only passes when amount == balance (see the test at line 50 of balances.test.ts in my fork).
