The breaking change in the network controller is also effectively a breaking change for any package that has the network controller as a peer dependency (assets-controllers and gas-fee-controller). We should add an entry to those two package changelogs about this as well, and ensure it's marked as **BREAKING:** with a major version bump.

Great work! Lots of changes in this release, the network controller especially has been in need of a release for some time.

I have finished reviewing these changes, and can approve once all of my comments have been addressed. The last thing I have left to do is review the network controller changelog to see if I can add further detail to explain which changes are breaking, and how to accommodate them when updating. I can revise the changelog post-merge with those changes if necessary though, so it doesn't need to block

I have finished making suggestions for the network controller changelog
