- Allows selector functions to be async similar to validators - Allows adding additional selectors/validators after construction This is to allow extending functionality after setup of other components that have a different lifecycle. Specifically Helia has a libp2p property, but IPNS usage needs setup of Helia before it can add DHT selectors/validators - by that point it's too late to add DHT selectors/validators as libp2p has already been constructed.

Selectors need to be async to allow for more types of work to be done during record selection, here Helia needs to be able to load esoteric encryption schemes that it may not be initially configured with.
