a683e0296a Peer manager cfg (#2766)
## Issue Addressed
I've done this change in a couple of WIPs already so I might as well submit it on its own. This changes no functionality but reduces coupling in a 0.0001%. It also helps new people who need to work in the peer manager to better understand what it actually needs from the outside

## Proposed Changes

Add a config to the peer manager

7502970a7d Do not compute metrics in the network service if the cli flag is not set (#2765)
## Issue Addressed

The computation of metrics in the network service can be expensive. This disables the computation unless the cli flag `metrics` is set.

## Additional Info
Metrics in other parts of the network are still updated, since most are simple metrics and checking if metrics are enabled each time each metric is updated doesn't seem like a gain.

1790010260 Upgrade to latest libp2p (#2605)
This is a pre-cursor to the next libp2p upgrade. 

It is currently being used for staging a number of PR upgrades which are contingent on the latest libp2p.

Attempts to fix #2701 but I doubt this is the reason behind that.

df40700ddd Rename eth2_libp2p to lighthouse_network (#2702)
## Description

The `eth2_libp2p` crate was originally named and designed to incorporate a simple libp2p integration into lighthouse. Since its origins the crates purpose has expanded dramatically. It now houses a lot more sophistication that is specific to lighthouse and no longer just a libp2p integration. 

As of this writing it currently houses the following high-level lighthouse-specific logic:
- Lighthouse's implementation of the eth2 RPC protocol and specific encodings/decodings
- Integration and handling of ENRs with respect to libp2p and eth2
- Lighthouse's discovery logic, its integration with discv5 and logic about searching and handling peers. 
- Lighthouse's peer manager - This is a large module handling various aspects of Lighthouse's network, such as peer scoring, handling pings and metadata, connection maintenance and recording, etc.
- Lighthouse's peer database - This is a collection of information stored for each individual peer which is specific to lighthouse. We store connection state, sync state, last seen ips and scores etc. The data stored for each peer is designed for various elements of the lighthouse code base such as syncing and the http api.
- Gossipsub scoring - This stores a collection of gossipsub 1.1 scoring mechanisms that are continuously analyssed and updated based on the ethereum 2 networks and how Lighthouse performs on these networks.
- Lighthouse specific types for managing gossipsub topics, sync status and ENR fields
- Lighthouse's network HTTP API metrics - A collection of metrics for lighthouse network monitoring
- Lighthouse's custom configuration of all networking protocols, RPC, gossipsub, discovery, identify and libp2p. 

Therefore it makes sense to rename the crate to be more akin to its current purposes, simply that it manages the majority of Lighthouse's network stack. This PR renames this crate to `lighthouse_network`
