Description
We currently timeout "local" dials after 5 seconds. Unfortunately, "local" latencies may actually be high (e.g. on VPNs).
See https://github.com/ipfs/go-ipfs/issues/6468.
Given that we already have a 10s timeout in the TCP transport (for the handshake), we should consider dropping this (or at least limiting it to localhost).
