Improvement Suggestion

The next go-libp2p update will require some more work, since we'll need to completely get rid of the (now deprecated) go-libp2p-core. go-libp2p-core was moved into go-libp2p as part of our mono-repo consolidation effort. Due to subsequent changes made to the core interfaces, go build will now fail even if there's any (transitive or non-transitive) dependency on go-libp2p-core.
This means we'll need to update all Lotus dependencies to not use go-libp2p-core any more. This is a painful exercise, but it has to be done once. The good news is that updating go-libp2p in the future will be much easier since as a mono-repo, there are less failure points.

Updating to v0.25 will be required to build with Go 1.20.
