make actionable error messaging when DHT not enabled #320

Description

@jacobheun

If no content/peer router is running, such as the DHT, and a user attempts to make a content or peer routing request the error is not particularly helpful as detailed at #314 (comment).

For errors like this, where the system needs to be added/started via configuration, we should add an actionable message to the error to allow the user to better fix the problem. In the error linked above, this could be a link to the DHT configuration section of the readme.
