Describe the feature you are proposing

Currently, an IPNS record is published by one node to the DHT and to the pubsub (if active). It would be nice if we could add IPNS records to the cluster pinset. Each member would need to verify the IPNS record and then start publishing it via DHT/pubsub as well as mirror.

This avoids the single point of failure we're currently having in this regard in the infrastructure.

Additional context

Requested feature for go-ipfs:

ipfs/kubo#8433

Talked about this a bit at the IPFS Thing with @hsanjuan

One thing that would be useful here is to subscribe to the IPNS pubsub record so that we can watch for changes. Else DHT polling could be done but it'd be kinda inefficient.

Also, users will likely need to be informed that they need to either keep their publishing node online indefinitely or to set a very large TTL on their IPNS records so that they don't expire and can actually get republished.
