This pre-release brings a lot of breaking changes, including an upgrade to a breaking version of celestia-app as well as the addition of versioning to our pubsub topics, meaning we have also upgraded the chain ID of arabica to arabica-4.

The state from the previous arabica chain has been preserved, so it is possible to migrate keys to any already-funded accounts to the node's keystore (by default, located at ~/.celestia-<node_type>-arabica-4/keys/keyring-test/).

Note: please re-initialise the node's store.

Most notably, however, this pre-release includes a fix (#1639 and #1684) that address instability issues previously experienced on both mocha and arabica when attempting to bootstrap onto the networks. Special thanks to our master debugger @Wondertan for finding the issue and to @vgonkivs for implementing the fix.
