Request to add [TAPLE](https://www.taple.es) Project to rust-libp2p notable users. TAPLE is a permissioned DLT solution for traceability of assets and processes. We use libp2p for the network layer.
Pull-Request: #4309.
Currently, our top-level `Cargo.toml` manifest represents a crate AND a workspace. This causes surprising behaviour (e.g. #2949) where we need to explicitly pass `--workpace` to every command to run it on the entire workspace and not just the meta crate.
My moving the meta crate into its own directory, the root manifest file is a virtual manifest only and thus, every `cargo` command will automatically default to running on the entire workspace.
On top of this, I personally find it easier to understand if workspace and crate manifests are not mixed.
Pull-Request: #3536.
A `ProtocolsHandler`, now `ConnectionHandler`, handels a connection, not
a protocol. Thus the name `CONNECTIONHandler` is more appropriate.
Next to the rename of `ProtocolsHandler` this commit renames the `mod
protocols_handler` to `mod handler`. Finally all combinators (e.g.
`ProtocolsHandlerSelect`) are renamed appropriately.
With the ethereum 2 [lighthouse client] and the Filecoin [forest client]
we have two rust-libp2p users demonstrating compatibility of the
rust-libp2p library with other libp2p implementations on a daily basis
on their corresponding live networks.
That in mind the compatibility warning is out of date. While we could do
better, especially in regards to automated compatibility testing across
implementations, rust-libp2p is in fact compatible with the libp2p
specification as well as other libp2p implementations.

Add notable users:
- ipfs-embed. Rust IPFS implementation with a focus on being embeddable into rust applications
- actyx, platform for writing manufacturing applications, based on rust-libp2p
* README: Express preference for Github issues for questions
* README: Remove IRC and mention Discussions forum

Move transport upgrade protocols from `protocols/`
to `transports/`, such that only "application protocols"
that depend on `libp2p-swarm` remain in `protocols/`,
whereas there is no such dependency in `transports/`
outside of integration tests.
Tweak README and top-level CHANGELOG.
Add rust-ipfs to the list of notable users
Not sure if it is notable enough, but it is open source and looking for contributors, so it would be cool to have it listed here.
