Bug report

Expected behavior

Browser light clients can establish and hold connections with peers.

Actual behavior

Browser clients panic when connecting to the first peer (seed) with:

thread '<unnamed>' panicked at 'there is no reactor running, must be called from the context of a Tokio 1.x runtime': /core-rs-albatross/network-interface/src/request/mod.rs:223

and can then no longer maintain connections, as peers disconnect after a few seconds because of response timeouts on their side.

Steps to reproduce

Either

• Open https://wallet.pos.nimiq-testnet.com in your browser.

or

• Compile the browser client locally (./web-client/scripts/build.sh --only web --skip-types --skip-wasm-opt) and serve the web-client folder, then go to http://localhost/example. If seed1 is not up, change the seed node in web-client/example/module.js to a node that is up.
