Create guide to self-hosting research object data on IPFS

[m0ar]

Create instructions for self-hosting the data in a research object.

Target audience: entities using Nodes to publish and discover, but not use DeSci Labs for data hosting.

Content draft:

• Overview of the Nodes / codex / IPFS / dPID building blocks
• IPFS basics
  • Public / private caveats
• Infrastructure requirements
• Kubo setup
• Adding data to IPFS
  • Default path: add local filetree as unixFS
  • Notes on formats
• Adding the resulting CIDs as external data in Node

Looks OK @pkoellinger ?

Yes, this looks great! Let's do it! Do you want to set this up in a Gitbook we can link to, or do you have something else in mind?

Not sure! Maybe a dedicated gitbook for integration makes sense. Or a section somewhere in the existing user docs, don't have a good grasp on those tbh.
