I had thought of this for a very long time but there were no compelling
reasons to do it. Specifying RPC endpoint permissions becomes however
significantly nicer if each Component is a different RPC Service. This also
fixes some naming issues like having to prefix methods with the component name
to separate them from methods named in the same way in some other component
(Pin and IPFSPin).
This takes advantange of the latest features in go-cid, peer.ID and
go-multiaddr and makes the Go types serializable by default.
This means we no longer need to copy between Pin <-> PinSerial, or ID <->
IDSerial etc. We can now efficiently binary-encode these types using short
field keys and without parsing/stringifying (in many cases it just a cast).
We still get the same json output as before (with minor modifications for
Cids).
This should greatly improve Cluster performance and memory usage when dealing
with large collections of items.

This removes a bunch of the channel dance and block forwarding
by having the adder submodules be DAGServices themselves and take
Add() directly from the ipfsAdder.
