unixfs: suggest, but do not strictly mandate unixfs<>dagpb
The strict coupling poses some problems for IPLD implementations that: 1. do not retain codec information between the serialization and UnixFS (ADL) reification; and/or 2. do not have a mechanism to strictly mandate that UnixFS data be _only_ encoded in a particular codec. A mandate in the specification that strictly defines the layering on top of the codec makes it difficult to implement it as an ADL, which also presents difficulty for using tooling that builds on IPLD lens-style layering.
