fix: remove non default ipld formats in the browser (#1980)

BREAKING CHANGE: Browser application bundles now include only `ipld-dag-pb`, `ipld-dag-cbor` and `ipld-raw` IPLD codecs. Other codecs should be added manually, see https://github.com/ipfs/js-ipfs/blob/master/README.md#optionsipld for details.

* In Node.js `require('ipfs')`
    * all IPLD formats included
* In browser application bundle `require('ipfs')` bundled with webpack/browserify/etc.
    * only `ipld-dag-pb`, `ipld-dag-cbor` and `ipld-raw` included
* CDN bundle `<script src="https://unpkg.com/ipfs/dist/index.min.js"></script>`
    * all IPLD formats included

+
+ To add support for other formats we provide two options, one sync and another async.
+
+ Examples for the sync option:

+```
+> For more information about dynamic imports please check [webpack docs](https://webpack.js.org/guides/code-splitting/#dynamic-imports) or search your bundler documention.
+
+Using dynamic imports will tell your bundler to create a separate file (normally called *chunk*) that will **only** be requested by the browser if it's really needed. This strategy will reduce your bundle size and load times without removing any functionality.
+
+With Webpack IPLD formats can even be grouped together using magic comments `import(/* webpackChunkName: "ipld-formats" */ 'ipld-git')` to produce a single file with all of them.
