Consider an inline representation for small multiaddrs #36

@rklaehn

Description

@rklaehn

Similar to multiformats/rust-multihash#47

Using the same approach, for a total size of 64 bytes, you get 62 bytes of data. That is enough to store a multiaddr like /ip4/<32 bit addr>/tcp/<port>/ipfs/<256 bit node hash> or even /ip6/<128 bit addr>/tcp/<port>/ipfs/<256 bit node hash> inline, which should be quite useful.

Rust-libp2p nodes frequently store peer ids multiple times, so this would be a nice optimisation.
