Research direction

Start with the two linked source-map-explorer reports for background-5.html and background-6.html to confirm the contribution from lib-p2p, multihashes, and multi-stream select. Trace how these modules enter the extension bundle and determine whether lib-p2p can be excluded. Done means the affected bundle size is reduced and the reports confirm the intended modules are no longer included.
