Why switch from subpath exports to barrel files?

[justin0mcateer]

When the mono-repo was created, the exports under the libp2p package were specified using 'exports' in package.json. With 1.0, these subpath exports have been eliminated in favor of barrel file. Why so?

It was getting increasingly hard to remember which interfaces were exported from which sub paths, and some of them were inconsistent and arbitrary, e.g:

import type { Connection } from '@libp2p/interface/connection'

// vs

import type { Stream } from '@libp2p/interface/stream-muxer'

so for V1 everything has shifted to the root which is a bit simpler to consume:

import type { Connection, Stream } from '@libp2p/interface'
