This PR follow the changes in the Pinner to make listing recursive and direct pins asynchronous, which in turns allow pin/ls to build and emit results without having to wait anything, or accumulate too much in memory.
Note: there is a tradeoff for pin/ls?type=all:
- keep the recursive pins in memory (which I chose)
- ask the pinner twice for the recursive pins, and limit memory usage
Also, follow the changes in the GC with similar benefit of not having to wait the full pin list. Add a test.
Also, follow the changes in pin.Verify.
This adds the ability to enable "optimistic provide" to the default
DHT client, which enables faster provides and reprovides.

Note that this feature only works when using non-custom router
types. This does not include the ability to enable optimistic provide
on custom routers for now, to minimize the footprint of this
experimental feature. We intend on continuing to test this and improve
the UX, which may or may not involve adding configuration for it to
custom routers. We also plan on refactoring/redesigning custom routers
more broadly so I don't want this to add more effort for maintainers
and confusion for users.
* fix: remove timeout on default DHT operations
This removes the timeout by default for DHT operations. In particular
this causes issues with ProvideMany requests which can take an
indeterminate amount of time, but really these should just respect
context timeouts by default. Users can still specify timeouts here if
they want, but by default they will be set to "0" which means "no
timeout".
This is unlikely to break existing users of custom routing, because
there was previously no utility in configuring a router with timeout=0
because that would cause the router to immediately fail, so it is
unlikely (and incorrect) if anybody was using timeout=0.
* fix: remove 5m timeout on ProvideManyRouter

This also means that rb-pinning-service-api is no longer required for
running remote pinning tests. This alone saves at least 3 minutes in
test runtime in CI because we don't need to checkout the repo, build
the Docker image, run it, etc.
Instead this implements a simple pinning service in Go that the test
runs in-process, with a callback that can be used to control the async
behavior of the pinning service (e.g. simulate work happening
asynchronously like transitioning from "queued" -> "pinning" ->
"pinned").
This also adds an environment variable to Kubo to control the MFS
remote pin polling interval, so that we don't have to wait 30 seconds
in the test for MFS changes to be repinned. This is purely for tests
so I don't think we should document this.
This entire test suite runs in around 2.5 sec on my laptop, compared to
the existing 3+ minutes in CI.
