Description
We should remove secio as the default connection encryption module in libp2p daemon. Making noise used by default and remove the option to use secio/noise at all.
Currently, we are running interop tests for libp2p using secio unless explicitly setting noise, which is not desirable.
We should do this together with go-libp2p-daemon, otherwise we will need to explicitly set noise as the used module in the interop tests when spawning go nodes.

Research direction
Start by tracing the daemon's connection-encryption configuration and the interop tests mentioned in the issue. Compare the corresponding setup in go-libp2p-daemon, then update both daemons so Noise is the default and Secio is no longer selectable; verify the interop tests without an explicit Noise override.
