Add documentation on how I envision GC working for ipcs:

  • Containerd GC unpins root IPLD nodes
    • If IPFS daemon is shared with other applications, how do I ensure I'm the last one to unpin that CID? Need some kind of pin refcounting (higher level IPFS proxy?)
  • IPFS GC removes unreferenced IPLD nodes (and its unreferenced children)
