fix: drop connection when stream ends unexpectedly
Pull streams pass true in the error position when the sream ends. In https://github.com/multiformats/js-multistream-select/blob/5b19358b91850b528b3f93babd60d63ddcf56a99/src/select.js#L18-L21 ...we're getting lots of instances of pull-length-prefixed stream erroring early with `true` and it's passed back up to the dialer in https://github.com/libp2p/js-libp2p-switch/blob/fef2d11850379a4720bb9c736236a81a067dc901/src/dial.js#L238-L241 The `_createMuxedConnection` contains an assumption that any error that occurs when trying `_attemptMuxerUpgrade` is ok, and keeps the relveant baseConnecton in the cache. If the pull-stream has ended unexpectedly then keeping the connection arround starts causing the "already piped" errors when we try and use the it later. This PR adds a guard to avoid putting the connection back into the cache if the stream has ended. There is related work in an old PR to add a check for exactly this issue in pull-length-prefixed dignifiedquire/pull-length-prefixed#8 ...but it's still open, so this PR adds a check for true in the error position at the site where the "already piped" errors were appearing. Once the PR on pull-length-prefixed is merged this check can be removed. It's not ideal to have it in this code as it is far removed from the source, but it fixes the issue for now. Arguably anywhere that `msDialer.handle` is called should do the same check, but we're not seeing this error occur anywhere else so to keep this PR small, I've left it as the minimal changeset to fix the issue. Of note, we had to add '/dns4/ws-star.discovery.libp2p.io/tcp/443/wss/p2p-websocket-star' to the swarm config to trigger the "already piped" errors. There is a minimal test app here https://github.com/tableflip/js-ipfs-already-piped-error Manual testing shows ~50 streams fail in the first 2 mins of running a node, and then things stabalise with ~90 active muxed connections after that.
