Put extra transports behind feature flags to make some dependencies optional.

While at it, also made sure no warnings are emitted on the recent rust version.

Resolves #161.

nit: It might be worth having this module structured as:

  • mod.rs to bridge the quic.rs websocket.rs and tcp.rs depending on feature flags; and here we can have the common logic as well
  • then have the tests moved to individual files so that the only cfg we state is in mod.rs
#mod.rs

#[cfg(feature = "quic")]
use quic.rs
...

We can also handle this later since I expect to run into some edge-cases along the way which may involve a closer refactor

I was thinking about putting quick/websocket/webrtc tests into dedicated files, but it looks like the tests only differ in the transport used, and belong better to the connection/protocol test files. I.e., it would be easier to have these tests along each other in the same file. I will think if there is another alternative to having cfg spread over the files. Let me know if you have anything in mind

nit: By looking at this fn, I believe we can extract some common bits into tests/common.rs? Can be done as a followup :D

Done. While doing this I ran into issue that tests/common.rs is considered to be a test of it's own, and rust generates dead code warnings. So I ended up putting it in tests/common/mod.rs.

LGTM! Nice work here 👍

I like that we guard dependencies by feature flags. This should be quite important for users that only desire individual transports. It adds a bit of complexity for us in managing feature-flags, and we can look into the future at structuring our testing in a friendlier way for us, although put in balance I believe this is good 🙏

## [0.7.0] - 2024-09-05

This release introduces several new features, improvements, and fixes to
the litep2p library. Key updates include enhanced error handling,
configurable connection limits, and a new API for managing public
addresses.

### [Exposing Public Addresses
API](#212)

A new `PublicAddresses` API has been added, enabling users to manage the
node's public addresses. This API allows developers to add, remove, and
retrieve public addresses, which are shared with peers through the
Identify protocol.

```rust
    // Public addresses are accessible from the main litep2p instance.
    let public_addresses = litep2p.public_addresses();

    // Add a new public address to the node.
    if let Err(err) = public_addresses.add_address(multiaddr) {
        eprintln!("Failed to add public address: {:?}", err);
    }

    // Remove a public address from the node.
    public_addresses.remove_address(&multiaddr);

    // Retrieve all public addresses of the node.
    for address in public_addresses.get_addresses() {
        println!("Public address: {}", address);
    }
```

**Breaking Change**: The Identify protocol no longer includes public
addresses in its configuration. Instead, use the new `PublicAddresses`
API.

Migration Guide:

```rust
    // Before:
    let (identify_config, identify_event_stream) = IdentifyConfig::new(
        "/substrate/1.0".to_string(),
        Some(user_agent),
        config.public_addresses,
    );

    // After:
    let (identify_config, identify_event_stream) =
        IdentifyConfig::new("/substrate/1.0".to_string(), Some(user_agent));
    // Public addresses must now be added using the `PublicAddresses` API:
    for address in config.public_addresses {
        if let Err(err) = public_addresses.add_address(address) {
            eprintln!("Failed to add public address: {:?}", err);
        }
    }
```

### [Dial Error and List Dial Failures
Event](#206)

The `DialFailure` event has been enhanced with a new `DialError` enum
for more precise error reporting when a dial attempt fails.
Additionally, a `ListDialFailures` event has been introduced, listing
all dialed addresses and their corresponding errors when multiple
addresses are involved.

Other litep2p errors, such as `ParseError`, `AddressError`, and
`NegotiationError`, have been refactored for improved error propagation.

### [Immediate Dial Error and Request-Response Rejection
Reasons](#227)

This new feature paves the way for better error handling in the
`litep2p` library and moves away from the overarching
`litep2p::error::Error` enum.

The newly added `ImmediateDialError` enum captures errors occurring
before a dial request is sent (e.g., missing peer IDs). It also enhances
the `RejectReason` enum for request-response protocols, offering more
detailed rejection reasons.


```rust
match error {
    RequestResponseError::Rejected(reason) => {
        match reason {
            RejectReason::ConnectionClosed => "connection-closed",
            RejectReason::DialFailed(Some(ImmediateDialError::AlreadyConnected)) => "already-connected",
            _ => "other",
        }
    }
    _ => "other",
}
```

### [Connection Limits](#185)

Developers can now set limits on the number of inbound and outbound
connections to manage resources and optimize performance.

```rust
    // Configure connection limits for inbound and outbound established connections.
    let litep2p_config = Config::default()
        .with_connection_limits(ConnectionLimitsConfig::default()
            .max_incoming_connections(Some(3))
            .max_outgoing_connections(Some(2))
        );
```

### [Feature Flags for Optional
Transports](#192)

The library now supports feature flags to selectively enable or disable
transport protocols. By default, only the `TCP` transport is enabled.
Optional transports include:

- `quic` - Enables QUIC transport.
- `websocket` - Enables WebSocket transport.
- `webrtc` - Enables WebRTC transport.

### [Configurable Keep-Alive
Timeout](#155)

The keep-alive timeout for connections is now configurable, providing
more control over connection lifecycles.

```rust
    // Set keep alive timeout for connections.
    let litep2p_config = Config::default()
        .with_keep_alive_timeout(Duration::from_secs(30));
```
