You're mixing things incorrectly. Ed25519 is a specific ECC curve, but
you could use that curve in PGP, X.509, SSH, or plenty of other protocols.
Ed25519 is completely orthogonal to PGP Keyservers.
So what exactly are you asking? Are you asking if there are Ed25519 PGP
Keys that could be available via HKP? Or are you asking if there are
X.509 (non-PGP) Key Servers? Or are you asking how you could use Ed25519?
