Description
# What
Bitswap broadcasting of want-haves and want-blocks has been a source of network spam for many operators for some time.
Some consumers of Bitswap may want to opt out of this part of bitswap -- using it purely as a data transfer protocol and doing content routing in other ways.
It would ideal to be able to start a session with a fixed set of peers, or more ideal a fixed channel of incoming peers, and never do Broadcasts or FindProviders.
