Goals
We've seen heaving memory usage during large data transfers. This update fixes them on both sides.
For a more in-depth explanation of the fixes see: filecoin-project/go-data-transfer#109
Implementation
The implementation is in upstream packages and there are no changes here
Note: The PRs in Data transfer are not merged and I'd like to get them in master & a tagged release before this goes in LOTUS master.
However, this branch should be adequate for testing by folks who want to see if the issue is resolved.
Resolves #4121 #4468 and associated problems on the client side as well
