Describe the Problem

So as of now, all the major ETH node implementations support \n delimiter after every JSON message on their IPC socket.
The problem is. Some even require it. Geth and Nethermind at least won't ever reply to a request if it is not terminated with \n. For Geth the reason is they use the default JSON decoder from golang which is built for streams and needs a delimiter. Nethermind just hardcoded \n as their delimiter for IPC request handling.

Please fix this. Thanks a lot. Ethers.js is amazing
