Description

Currently, we format the peer ID in the Go side and pass it as pretty_peer_id in the GetNodeIdentity proto message, but it can be derived from the raw peer_id.

Research direction

Start at the /node/identity endpoint and the GetNodeIdentity proto message; trace how raw peer_id and pretty_peer_id are handled on the Go side. Done means the endpoint derives the formatted peer ID from raw peer_id instead of receiving pretty_peer_id.
