Problem

discv5 specifies topic advertisement. This allows for more efficient lookups for a specific capability. However, the nim implementation currently does not implement this.

Acceptance Criteria

While we can use ENR fields right now to advertise capabilities, it makes sense that once topic advertisements are implemented in nim to revisit this and compare the two.

Notes

Shouldn't this be "efficient lookup for a specific capability"? It'd be good to have some, theoretical at least, justification for why this would be amazing. As opposed to say brute force or ENR fields. Build intuition on what the hypothesis is we want to test
