I had this change but it seems to have been lost in chaos of network upgrades.
The swarm dialing event seems to miss some cases where we dial via the behaviour. This causes an error to be logged as the peer manager doesn't know about some dialing events.
This shifts the logic to the behaviour to inform the peer manager.
## Issue Addressed
Part of a bigger effort to make the network globals read only. This moves all writes to the `PeerDB` to the `eth2_libp2p` crate. Limiting writes to the peer manager is a slightly more complicated issue for a next PR, to keep things reviewable.
## Proposed Changes
- Make the peers field in the globals a private field.
- Allow mutable access to the peers field to `eth2_libp2p` for now.
- Add a new network message to update the sync state.

This simply moves some functions that were "swarm notifications" to a network behaviour implementation.
Notes
------
- We could disconnect from the peer manager but we would lose the rpc shutdown message
- We still notify from the swarm since this is the most reliable way to get some events. Ugly but best for now
- Events need to be pushed with "add event" to wake the waker

This is a pre-cursor to the next libp2p upgrade.
It is currently being used for staging a number of PR upgrades which are contingent on the latest libp2p.
## Description
The `eth2_libp2p` crate was originally named and designed to incorporate a simple libp2p integration into lighthouse. Since its origins the crates purpose has expanded dramatically. It now houses a lot more sophistication that is specific to lighthouse and no longer just a libp2p integration.
As of this writing it currently houses the following high-level lighthouse-specific logic:
- Lighthouse's implementation of the eth2 RPC protocol and specific encodings/decodings
- Integration and handling of ENRs with respect to libp2p and eth2
- Lighthouse's discovery logic, its integration with discv5 and logic about searching and handling peers.
- Lighthouse's peer manager - This is a large module handling various aspects of Lighthouse's network, such as peer scoring, handling pings and metadata, connection maintenance and recording, etc.
- Lighthouse's peer database - This is a collection of information stored for each individual peer which is specific to lighthouse. We store connection state, sync state, last seen ips and scores etc. The data stored for each peer is designed for various elements of the lighthouse code base such as syncing and the http api.
- Gossipsub scoring - This stores a collection of gossipsub 1.1 scoring mechanisms that are continuously analyssed and updated based on the ethereum 2 networks and how Lighthouse performs on these networks.
- Lighthouse specific types for managing gossipsub topics, sync status and ENR fields
- Lighthouse's network HTTP API metrics - A collection of metrics for lighthouse network monitoring
- Lighthouse's custom configuration of all networking protocols, RPC, gossipsub, discovery, identify and libp2p.
Therefore it makes sense to rename the crate to be more akin to its current purposes, simply that it manages the majority of Lighthouse's network stack. This PR renames this crate to `lighthouse_network`
