    core/commands: Make IpnsCmd and PublishCmd public · 40c6ffd4
    W. Trevor King authored
    ipfs-shell [1] accesses the Command objects directly to construct
    requests for an external IPFS daemon API.  This isn't a terribly
    robust approach, because it doesn't handle version differences between
    the version of go-ipfs used to build the daemon and the version used
    to build the ipfs-shell-consuming application.  But for cases where
    you can get those APIs to match it works well.  Making these two
    commands public allows us to write ipfs-shell wrappers for them.
    Until we figure out how to get ipfs-shell working without access to
    core/commands, I think the best approach is to make future command
    objects and their returned structures public, and to go back and
    expose existing commands/structures on an as-needed basis.
    
    In this case, I need the public PublishCmd for the Docker-registry
    storage driver, and I made the IpnsCmd public at the same time to stay
    consistent for both 'ipfs name ...' sub-commands.
