The require time profile for starting an IPFS daemon (`ipfs daemon`) showed IPLD as a significant contributor to the total time spent requiring modules. This is because the formats are all required ahead of time. In total, the default IPLD formats take around 200ms of time to require. This PR adds support for these default modules lazily. You only suffer the require time when you use a particular format. So if you never use git, ethereum or zcash blocks (probably most people right now) they don't contribute to the startup time of your node. License: MIT Signed-off-by: Alan Shaw <alan@tableflip.io>

This PR uses the new `loadFormat` option for IPLD to lazily require IPLD formats in order to reduce the startup time for the node. If you're feeling like you've seen this before then, for reference: The PR ipld/js-ipld#164 undid the work done in ipld/js-ipld#145 and ipld/js-ipld#178 re-enabled lazy loading.

The require time profile for starting an IPFS daemon (
ipfs daemon) showed IPLD as a significant contributor to the total time spent requiring modules. This is because the formats are all required ahead of time:In the trace above, you can see the IPLD dependency taking 386ms in total of require time. Of which, the default IPLD formats take around 200ms of time to require. You can see
ipld-bitcoin,ipld-ethereumandipld-zcashtaking the majority of that time.This PR adds support for these default modules lazily. You only suffer the require time when you use a particular format. So if you never use git, ethereum or zcash blocks (probably most people right now) they don't contribute to the startup time of your node.
Now IPLD takes 121ms to require.
