ff9b09d964 upgrade to libp2p 0.52 (#4431)
## Issue Addressed

Upgrade libp2p to v0.52

## Proposed Changes
- **Workflows**: remove installation of `protoc`
- **Book**: remove installation of `protoc`
- **`Dockerfile`s and `cross`**: remove custom base `Dockerfile` for cross since it's no longer needed. Remove `protoc` from remaining `Dockerfiles`s
- **Upgrade `discv5` to `v0.3.1`:** we have some cool stuff in there: no longer needs `protoc` and faster ip updates on cold start
- **Upgrade `prometheus` to `0.21.0`**, now it no longer needs encoding checks
- **things that look like refactors:** bunch of api types were renamed and need to be accessed in a different (clearer) way
- **Lighthouse network**
	- connection limits is now a behaviour
	- banned peers no longer exist on the swarm level, but at the behaviour level
	- `connection_event_buffer_size` now is handled per connection with a buffer size of 4
	- `mplex` is deprecated and was removed
	- rpc handler now logs the peer to which it belongs

## Additional Info

Tried to keep as much behaviour unchanged as possible. However, there is a great deal of improvements we can do _after_ this upgrade:
- Smart connection limits: Connection limits have been checked only based on numbers, we can now use information about the incoming peer to decide if we want it
- More powerful peer management: Dial attempts from other behaviours can be rejected early
- Incoming connections can be rejected early
- Banning can be returned exclusively to the peer management: We should not get connections to banned peers anymore making use of this
- TCP Nat updates: We might be able to take advantage of confirmed external addresses to check out tcp ports/ips

6883e1bfb6 Fix broken links in book (#2912)
## Issue Addressed

https://github.com/sigp/lighthouse/issues/2889

## Additional Info

I have checked that linkcheck has succeeded on the book built locally. 👌 

```shell
$ cd book
$ mdbook serve --open
...
2022-01-14 01:13:40 [INFO] (mdbook::book): Book building has started
2022-01-14 01:13:40 [INFO] (mdbook::book): Running the html backend

$ linkcheck http://localhost:3000
Perfect. Checked 4495 links, 80 destination URLs (76 ignored).
```

Also I'll tackle running linkcheck on CI in another pull request.

b063df5bf9 Cross-compile to vendored x86_84, aarch64 (Raspberry Pi 4) (#1497)
## Issue Addressed

NA

## Proposed Changes

Adds support for using the [`cross`](https://github.com/rust-embedded/cross) project to produce cross-compiled binaries using Docker images.

Provides quite clean and simple cross-compiles cause all the complexity is hidden in Dockerfiles. It does require you to be in the `docker` group though.

## Details

- Adds shortcut commands to `Makefile`
- Ensures `reqwest` and `discv5` use vendored openssl libs (i.e., static not shared).
- Switches to a [commit](284f705964) of blst that has a renamed C function to avoid a collision with openssl (upstream issue: https://github.com/supranational/blst/issues/21).
- Updates `ring` to the latest satisfiable version, since an earlier version was causing issues with `cross`.
- Off-topic, but adds extra message about Windows support as suggested by Discord user.

## Additional Info

- ~~Blocked on #1495~~
- There are no tests in CI for this yet for a few reasons:
  - I'm hesitant to add more long-running tasks.
  - Short-term bitrot should be avoided since we'll use it each release.
  - In the long term I think it would be good to automate binary creation on a release.
- I observed the binaries increase in size from 50mb to 52mb after these changes.
