Fixes # .

Description

This PR implements support of using relays in building NVFLARE cellnet. Relays are nodes in the cellnet that are only used for routing messages. They do not have any learning functions.

This is the Part 1 of the relay support. It does not include provisioning functions for creating startup kits for relays. It also does not include relay authentication. These functions will be done in future PRs.

Currently peers of a CellPipe can only communicate via the Server. This PR includes an enhancement that allows peers to communicate via CP or Relay nodes. This can make the peer-to-peer communication more efficient.
