Keychain interface for libp2p

Install
$ npm i @libp2p/interface-keychain
The primary goal of this module is to enable developers to pick and swap their Content Routing module as they see fit for their libp2p installation, without having to go through shims or compatibility issues. This module and test suite were heavily inspired by abstract-blob-store and interface-stream-muxer.
Publishing a test suite as a module lets multiple modules all ensure compatibility since they use the same test suite.
Modules that implement the interface
Badge
Include this badge in your readme if you make a module that is compatible with the interface-content-routing API. You can validate this by running the tests.
How to use the battery of tests
Node.js
TBD
API
A valid (read: that follows this abstraction) Content Routing module must implement the following API.
findProviders
Find peers in the network that can provide a specific value, given a key.
Parameters
Returns
It returns an AsyncIterable
containing the identification and addresses of the peers providing the given key, as follows:
AsyncIterable<{ id: PeerId, multiaddrs: Multiaddr[] }>
