Feature Request: IPC access to C-Chain (EVM)

[michaelbnewman]

Currently there are RPC and WS connections available to C-Chain (EVM), but a similar connection with IPC is not available. Please see https://github.com/ava-labs/gecko/issues/254 for discussion that gecko IPC endpoints are not the same information providers as RPC and WS for EVM. It would be a nice feature to make EVM connecting IPC available, since its the fastest type of connection and most secure. Its already a feature that standard geth provides. For an example from web3py, see: https://web3py.readthedocs.io/en/stable/providers.html#web3.providers.ipc.IPCProvider

Seems strange that this appears to be the only request for this feature. Are you aware of any other discussion or modification to support this?
