BREAKING CHANGES

• addLink() and rmLink() are now instance methods.

Prior to this change:

DAGNode.addLink(node, link)
DAGNode.rmLink(node, name)

Now:

node.addLink(link)
node.rmLink(name)

• It's no longer possible to pass a DAGNode into addLink().

Intead of passing in a DAGNode into addLink(), convert that node into
a DAGLink via toDAGLink().

Example:

Prior to this change:

const node = new DAGNode('some data')
const node2 = new DAGNode('use that as link')
await DAGNode.addLink(node, node2)

Now:

const node = new DAGNode('some data')
const node2 = new DAGNode('use that as link')
DAGNode.addLink(node, await node2.toDAGLink())

• DAGNode.create() is removed

Instead of DAGNode.create(), please use new DAGNode() instead. It
takes the same parameters and is compatible to create().

Example:

Prior to this change:

const node = DAGNode.create('some data', links)

Now:

const node = new DAGNode('some data', links)

• DAGNode.clone() is removed from public API without any replacement.

Also the API for rmLink() and addLink() changed. They no longer
return a new node, but just remove/add the links to/from the current
node.

Prior to this change:

const lessLinks = DAGNode.rmLink(node1, 'Link1')
node1 = lessLinks
const moreLinks = await DAGNode.addLink(node2, link)
node2 = moreLinks

Now:

DAGNode.rmLink(node, 'Link1')
await DAGNode.addLink(node2, link)

• named links are no longer part of an object

Access to named links is only possible with calling resolve().
Hence they are also not part of tree() anymore.

Named links are a feature of IPFS and only supported for
backwards compatibility, they are not really part of IPLD.
