There was a problem hiding this comment.
nit: Maybe we could add the fn query_id() in the PeerAction?

Because previously litep2p didn't send/receive
PUT_VALUEACKs, we can't just enable this mechanism — this would lead to failures when older remote peers don't behave up to spec. This PR deals with this situation by implementing a workaround to handle such peers:PUT_VALUEsend successes instead of ACK responses to determine the query success.PUT_VALUEACK message.This should be seen as a temporary measure until most of the networks updates to litep2p with
PUT_VALUEACK support (this PR or newer). Suggested timing is in a year after releasing the version with this PR. This is tracked by issue #429.Builds upon #427.
