Christophe de Carvalho 611de28aca Add basic support for multiaddr addresses and improvement around peer id (#75)
* Improved peer ID construction and usage

* peer id object is directly passed to the network

no need to cast from a string to an ID

* don't base64 encode the peer id when loading from public key

* use proper multiaddr address

- keep multiaddr object into peerstore instead of string
- update network code to use new multiaddr lib
- update tests and example

* don't instanciate peerstore object in constructor

This has side effect where the same peerstore
is used for different instance of Libp2p

* add connect method to basic_host

* use zaibon's fork of sbuss/py-multiaddr

* lint
