What was wrong?

Apple Silicon machines are unable to install py-libp2p when following the current README.md

Issue #432

How was it fixed?

There are two issues when attempting to install py-libp2p

  1. _ctypes are not available in python3.7 | source
  2. gmp.h not included | source #432

Summary of approach. After research, and local testing, I've been able to install the py-libp2p with python3.10. The process to do so is added in the README.md
