For when you know that certain peers have some or all of the blocks
you want, allow passing providers to session implemenations to start
from instead of always querying the routing/connected peers.
```js
const buf = await helia.blocks.get(cid, {
providers: [
peerId1,
peerId2
]
})
```
Session implementations accept an array of `PeerId | Multiaddr | Multiaddr[]`
and use them if they can or discard them if they can't.
