Previously, a connection would be shut down immediately as soon as its `ConnectionHandler` reports `KeepAlive::No`. As we have gained experience with libp2p, it turned out that this isn't ideal.
For one, tests often need to keep connections alive longer than the configured protocols require. Plus, some usecases require connections to be kept alive in general.
Both of these needs are currently served by the `keep_alive::Behaviour`. That one does essentially nothing other than statically returning `KeepAlive::Yes` from its `ConnectionHandler`.
It makes much more sense to deprecate `keep_alive::Behaviour` and instead allow users to globally configure an `idle_conncetion_timeout` on the `Swarm`. This timeout comes into effect once a `ConnectionHandler` reports `KeepAlive::No`. To start with, this timeout is 0. Together with https://github.com/libp2p/rust-libp2p/issues/3844, this will allow us to move towards a much more aggressive closing of idle connections, together with a more ergonomic way of opting out of this behaviour.
Fixes#4121.

In the libp2p specs, the only handshake pattern that is specified is the XX handshake. Support for other handshake patterns can be added through external modules. While we are at it, we rename the remaining types to following the laid out naming convention.
The tests for handshakes other than XX are removed. The handshakes still work as we don't touch them in this patch.

Due to cargo's feature unification, a full build of our workspace doesn't actually check whether the examples compile as standalone projects.
We add a new CI check that iterates through all crates in the `examples/` directory and runs a plain `cargo check` on them. Any failure is bubbled up via `set -e`, thus failing CI in case one of the `cargo check` commands fails.
To fix the current failures, we construct a simple TCP transport everywhere where we were previously using `development_transport`. That is because `development_transport` requires `mplex` which is now deprecated.

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.
