ssb-client in the browser tries to use net: remotes

[regular]

When passing the result of sbot getAddress to ssbClient, it results in net.connect is not a function

[regular]

To reproduce:

git clone https://github.com/regular/ssb-integration-tests.git
cd ssb-integration-tests
npm i
npm t

@christianbundy @regular this is still an issue i think. i solved it by supplying a remote url in the config when passing it to the client. should the client attempt all protocols when net fails? i think net is hardcoded now when not passing in a remote.

    const sbot = await ssbClient(
      keys,
      Config('ssb', {
        remote: 'ws://localhost:8989~shs:EaYYQo5nAQRabB9nxAn5i2uiIZ665b90Qk2U/WHNVE8=.ed25519',
        caps,
      })
    )

Is this still relevant? If so, what is blocking it? Is there anything you can do to help move it forward?
