Proposed Changes

The initial implementation of IPNI used GossipSub as a way to propagate IPNI advertisement chain. To do this the propagation had to be relayed through the Lotus node due to strict Filecoin GossipSub validation rules.

Since then IPNI has moved on to roll out its own sync protocol that works over HTTP, and HTTP-over-libp2p. This move has been the official way of advertising content to IPNI federation over a year now.

Therefore, remove the ad relay over pubsub via Lotus node as it is now considered to have reached its EOL as a mechanism for advertising to IPNI.

We're confident that there are no potentially usable (in-use) versions of Boost that may be still reliant on this?

If there is, I think we want to break them. It has been a year and the time has come to remove support for the deprecated protocol.
