The display of `ListenError` could be more helpful. The inner `cause` already implements `Error` which in turn requires `Display`. This is then just a matter of using said impl requirement to get an useful display

Using workspace inheritance breaks `cargo release` because it cannot resolve that the dev-dependencies should only use a `path` and not a version.

We have two "interface" crates in our workspace: `libp2p-core` and `libp2p-swarm`. Most crates depend on both of these. To compile the tests for this crate, we often need a concrete implementation to some of these interfaces. When specifying a workspace-inherited dependency, we don't get to choose to omit the `version` field next to the path. If a dependency is `path`-only however, it will be tripped by `cargo` during the release process which is why all of this worked before our move to workspace inheritance.
With this patch, we change the minimum amount of dependencies necessary back to `path` dependencies to allowing releasing of our crates.

Prior to this change it was only possible to downcast a `ConnectionDenied` error when you had ownership of it which isn't the case inside `NetworkBehaviour`s. This change allows downcasting by reference.

This extends `ToSwarm` to add `ToSwarm::ListenOn` and `ToSwarm::RemoveListener`, which allows creating and removing listeners from a `NetworkBehaviour`.

In the unlikely event that we generated a random number twice, the 2nd address would not get added. Ensure we loop until we have 20 addresses.

Currently, the kademlia behaviour can only learn that the remote node supports kademlia on a particular connection if we successfully negotiate a stream to them.
Using the newly introduced abstractions from #3651, we don't have to attempt to establish a stream to the remote to learn whether they support kademlia on a connection but we can directly learn it from the `ConnectionEvent::RemoteProtocolsChange` event. This happens directly once a connection is established which should overall benefit the DHT.
Clients do not advertise the kademlia protocol and thus we will immediately learn that a given connection is not suitable for kadmelia requests. We may receive inbound messages from it but this does not affect the routing table.

This modification removes deprecated dependency `wasm_timer` and enables wasm compatibility on the gossibsup protocol by simply substituting the `wasm_timer::Instant` with `instant::Instant`(which supports `fn checked_add`) and `wasm_timer::Interval` with `futures_ticker::Ticker`.

Previously, the `libp2p-ping` module came with a policy to close a connection after X failed pings. This is only one of many possible policies on how users would want to do connection management.
We remove this policy without a replacement. If users wish to restore this functionality, they can easily implement such policy themselves: The default value of `max_failures` was 1. To restore the previous functionality users can simply close the connection upon the first received ping error.
In this same patch, we also simplify the API of `ping::Event` by removing the layer of `ping::Success` and instead reporting the RTT to the peer directly.

Previously, a `NetworkBehaviour` could report an `AddressScore` for an external address. This score was a `u32` and addresses would be ranked amongst those.
In reality, an address is either confirmed to be publicly reachable (via a protocol such as AutoNAT) or merely represents a candidate that might be an external address. In a way, addresses are guilty (private) until proven innocent (publicly reachable).
When a `NetworkBehaviour` reports an address candidate, we perform address translation on it to potentially correct for ephemeral ports of TCP. These candidates are then injected back into the `NetworkBehaviour`. Protocols such as AutoNAT can use these addresses as a source for probing their NAT status. Once confirmed, they can emit a `ToSwarm::ExternalAddrConfirmed` event which again will be passed to all `NetworkBehaviour`s.
This simplified approach will allow us implement Kademlia's client-mode (https://github.com/libp2p/rust-libp2p/issues/2032) without additional configuration options: As soon as an address is reported as publicly reachable, we can activate server-mode for that connection.

Pull-Request: #3954.
Previously, we would not call the handler upon injecting `ConnectionEvent::LocalProtocolsChange`. This would prevent protocols from being able to react to this change and e.g. issue events or open streams.

This PR refactors the error reporting away from panicking to returning `syn::Result` and adds two unit tests for the parsing of attributes that users interact with.

Previously, the associated types on `NetworkBehaviour` and `ConnectionHandler` carried generic names like `InEvent` and `OutEvent`. These names are _correct_ in that `OutEvent`s are passed out and `InEvent`s are passed in but they don't help users understand how these types are used.
In theory, a `ConnectionHandler` could be used separately from `NetworkBehaviour`s but that is highly unlikely. Thus, we rename these associated types to indicate, where the message is going to be sent to:
- `NetworkBehaviour::OutEvent` is renamed to `ToSwarm`: It describes the message(s) a `NetworkBehaviour` can emit to the `Swarm`. The user is going to receive those in `SwarmEvent::Behaviour`.
- `ConnectionHandler::InEvent` is renamed to `FromBehaviour`: It describes the message(s) a `ConnectionHandler` can receive from its behaviour via `ConnectionHandler::on_swarm_event`. The `NetworkBehaviour` can send it via the `ToSwarm::NotifyHandler` command.
- `ConnectionHandler::OutEvent` is renamed to `ToBehaviour`: It describes the message(s) a `ConnectionHandler` can send back to the behaviour via the now also renamed `ConnectionHandlerEvent::NotifyBehaviour` (previously `ConnectionHandlerEvent::Custom`)

`Transport::listen_on` is an asynchronous operation. It returns immediately but the actual process of establishing a listening socket happens as part of `Transport::poll` which will return one or more `TransportEvent`s related to a particular `listen_on` call.
Currently, `listen_on` returns a `ListenerId` which allows the user of the `Transport` interface to correlate the events with a particular `listen_on` call. This "user" is the `Swarm` runtime. Currently, a user of libp2p establishes a new listening socket by talking to the `Swarm::listen_on` interface and it is not possible to do the same thing via the `NetworkBehaviour` trait.
Within the `NetworkBehaviour` trait, we emit _commands_ to the `Swarm` like `ToSwarm::Dial`. These commands don't have a "return value" like a synchronous function does and thus, if we were to add a `ToSwarm::ListenOn` command, it could not receive the `ListenerId` from the `Transport`.
To fix this and to be consistent with our [coding guidelines](https://github.com/libp2p/rust-libp2p/blob/master/docs/coding-guidelines.md#allow-correlating-asynchronous-responses-to-their-requests) we change the interface of `Transport::listen_on` to require the user to pass in a `ListenerId`. This will allow us to construct a command in a `NetworkBehaviour` that remembers this ID which enables precise tracking of which events containing a `ListenerId` correlate which a particular `listen_on` command.
This is especially important in the context of listening on wildcard addresses like `0.0.0.0` because we end up binding to multiple network interfaces and thus emit multiple events for a single `listen_on` call.
Pull-Request: #3567.
This patch tackles two things at once that are fairly intertwined:
1. There is no such thing as a "substream" in libp2p, the spec and other implementations only talk about "streams". We fix this by deprecating `NegotiatedSubstream`.
2. Previously, `NegotiatedSubstream` was a type alias that pointed to a type from `multistream-select`, effectively leaking the version of `multistream-select` to all dependencies of `libp2p-swarm`. We fix this by introducing a `Stream` newtype.

With this patch, implementations of `ConnectionHandler` (which are typically composed in a tree) can exchange information about the supported protocols of a remote with each other via `ConnectionHandlerEvent::ReportRemoteProtocols`. The provided `ProtocolSupport` enum can describe either additions or removals of the remote peer's protocols.
This information is aggregated in the connection and passed down to the `ConnectionHandler` via `ConnectionEvent::RemoteProtocolsChange`.
Similarly, if the listen protocols of a connection change, all `ConnectionHandler`s on the connection will be notified via `ConnectionEvent::LocalProtocolsChange`. This will allow us to eventually remove `PollParameters` from `NetworkBehaviour`.
This pattern allows protocols on a connection to communicate with each other. For example, protocols like identify can share the list of (supposedly) supported protocols by the remote with all other handlers. A protocol like kademlia can accurately add and remove a remote from its routing table as a result.

Users are encouraged to use `libp2p::connection_limit::Behaviour` which is a one-to-one replacement for this functionality but built as a `NetworkBehaviour`.

The currently provided `ConnectionHandlerUpgrErr` is very hard to use. Not only does it have a long name, it also features 3 levels of nesting which results in a lot of boilerplate. Last but not least, it exposes `multistream-select` as a dependency to all protocols.
We fix all of the above by renaming the type to `StreamUpgradeError` and flattening out its interface. Unrecoverable errors during protocol selection are hidden within the `Io` variant.

This removes the deprecated `IntoConnectionHandler` trait and all its implementations. Consequently, `NetworkBehaviour::new_handler` and `NetworkBehaviour::addresses_of_peer` are now gone and the two `handle_` functions are now required to implement.

When an inbound stream upgrade fails, there isn't a whole lot we can do about that in the handler. In fact, for several errors, we wouldn't even know which specific handler to target, for example, `NegotiationFailed`. Similiarly, in case of an IO error during the upgrade, we don't know which handler the stream was eventually meant to be for.
Pull-Request: #3605.
Previously, a user wouldn't know whether passing a `SwarmEvent` to `ListenAddresses` or `ExternalAddresses` changed the state. We now return a boolean where `true` indicates that we handled the event **and** changed state as a result.
The API is inspired by `HashSet::insert` and the like.
Pull-Request: #3865.
Previously, a protocol could be any sequence of bytes as long as it started with `/`. Now, we directly parse a protocol as `String` which enforces it to be valid UTF8.
To notify users of this change, we delete the `ProtocolName` trait. The new requirement is that users need to provide a type that implements `AsRef<str>`.
We also add a `StreamProtocol` newtype in `libp2p-swarm` which provides an easy way for users to ensure their protocol strings are compliant. The newtype enforces that protocol strings start with `/`. `StreamProtocol` also implements `AsRef<str>`, meaning users can directly use it in their upgrades.
`multistream-select` by itself only changes marginally with this patch. The only thing we enforce in the type-system is that protocols must implement `AsRef<str>`.

Previously, we would specify the version and path of our workspace dependencies in each of our crates. This is error prone as https://github.com/libp2p/rust-libp2p/pull/3658#discussion_r1153278072 for example shows. Problems like these happened in the past too.
There is no need for us to ever depend on a earlier version than the most current one in our crates. It thus makes sense that we manage this version in a single place.
Cargo supports a feature called "workspace inheritance" which allows us to share a dependency declaration across a workspace and inherit it with `{ workspace = true }`.
We do this for all our workspace dependencies and for the MSRV.

The `unreachable_pub` lint makes us aware of uses of `pub` that are not actually reachable from the crate root. This is considered good because it means reading a `pub` somewhere means it is actually public API. Some of our crates are quite large and keeping their entire API surface in your head is difficult.
We should strive for most items being `pub(crate)`. This lint helps us enforce that.
