Helia v3 Release

[achingbrain]

Welcome to the tracking issue for the next major Helia release!

The main feature is the upgrade to libp2p@v1. This is a significant upgrade with lots of performance work having been done. In terms of streaming performance, js-libp2p is now the fastest libp2p implementation - https://observablehq.com/@libp2p-workspace/performance-dashboard

Unfortunately the API has changed and Helia exposes the underlying libp2p node so it has to go out as a major.

This gives us a nice opportunity to include the iterable pinning PR that's been sitting in the input queue for a little while - it lets the user control the concurrency of pinning as with other iterables and will eventually allow users to pick up on a failed pinning operation where they left off.

• Upgrade libp2p to v1 - deps!: updates to libp2p v1 #320
• Iterable pinning - feat!: iterable pinning #231
• Upgrade guide
