feat(tcp): make `TCP_NODELAY` the default
Description
Make TCP_NODELAY the default. In other words, disable Nagle's algorithm.
Rational of Golang setting TCP_NODELAY as default: https://github.com/golang/go/issues/57530
Motivation
Trading low latency over throughput, especially when sending small messages.
Already our defacto default, see various examples using it: https://github.com/search?q=repo%3Alibp2p%2Frust-libp2p%20nodelay&type=code
Current Implementation
TCP_NODELAY is not the default.
