This PR is the start of an effort to standardise the way we propagate and deal with errors.
The objective here is to remove event emitters, as we're only using them to propagate errors during instantiation. Moving
bootthat's inside the IPFS constructor to a factory method that returns a promise is a step towards that.The discussion started in #1325, but check #1325 (comment) and #1325 (comment) as to why.
This will be a breaking change and apps using ipfs will probably have to be refactored, so that's why we should offer backwards compatibility for some time, to allow developers to update their code.
