 - Use `futures-timer` instead of tokio's timer for stream timeouts so the bounded `Delay` works on
   `wasm32`; tokio's timer has no driver in the browser and panics at runtime.

+  AutoNAT where port reuse is disabled. This information is now passed by the behaviour.
   See [PR 4568](https://github.com/libp2p/rust-libp2p/pull/4568).
 - Introduce the new AutoNATv2 protocol.
   It's split into a client and a server part, represented in their respective modules
   Features:
     - The server now always dials back over a newly allocated port.
       This more accurately reflects the reachability state for other peers and avoids accidental hole punching.
     - The server can now test addresses different from the observed address (i.e., the connection to the server was made through a `p2p-circuit`). To mitigate against DDoS attacks, the client has to send more data to the server than the dial-back costs.
