feat(tvix/store): use async nar reader for ingest_nar r/8080
Rename read_nar to ingest_nar, and have it use the async nar reader
version, and the ingest_entries machinery.

This means we can now drop all code dealing with manually assembling
castore nodes.

Update our consumer, NixHTTPPathInfoService to use the new API.
As we now accept an AsyncRead, we don't need to do any blocking here
anymore, and can use the same async-compression crate as in the fetching
logic (and support some more compression formats out of the box).
