Future-proof Testing (Expansive protocol test coverage) 🧪

[p-shahi]

eta: 2023Q3

Why: Having interoperability tests with lots of transports, encryption mechanisms, and stream muxers is great. However, we need to stay backwards-compatible with legacy libp2p releases, with other libp2p implementations, and less advanced libp2p stacks.

Goal: Expand beyond unit tests and have expansive test-plan coverage that covers all protocols.
