v1.0.8

IPFS Cluster v1.0.8 is a maintenance release.

This release updates dependencies (latest boxo and libp2p) and should bring a couple of Pebble-related improvements:

• We have upgraded Pebble's version. Some users have reported deadlocks in writes to Pebble (ipfs/ipfs-cluster#2009) and this seems to have helped.
• Pebble now supports 32-bit so it can be the default for all archs.
• We added a warning when Pebble's newest MajorFormatVersion is higher than
  what is used in the configuration. Users should increase their major_format_version
  to maintain forward-compatibility with future versions of Pebble.

Additionally, some bugs have been fixed and a couple of useful features added, as mentioned below.
