chore(tvix): move store/fs to castore/fs r/7256
With the recent introduction of the RootNodes trait, there's nothing in
the fs module pulling in tvix-store dependencies, so it can live in
tvix-castore.

This allows other crates to make use of TvixStoreFS, without having to
pull in tvix-store.

For example, a tvix-build using a fuse mountpoint at /nix/store doesn't
need a PathInfoService to hold the root nodes that should be present,
but just a list.

tvix-store now has a pathinfoservice/fs module, which contains the
necessary glue logic to implement the RootNodes trait for a
PathInfoService.

To satisfy Rust orphan rules for trait implementations, we had to add a
small wrapper struct. It's mostly hidden away by the make_fs helper
function returning a TvixStoreFs.

It can't be entirely private, as its still leaking into the concrete
type of TvixStoreFS.

tvix-store still has `fuse` and `virtiofs` features, but they now simply
enable these features in the `tvix-castore` crate they depend on.

The tests for the fuse functionality stay in tvix-store for now, as
they populate the root nodes through a PathInfoService.

Once above mentioned "list of root nodes" implementation exists, we
might want to shuffle this around one more time.

Fixes b/341.

-/// This implements a read-only FUSE filesystem for a tvix-store
-/// with the passed [BlobService], [DirectoryService] and [RootNodes].
-///
-/// Linux uses inodes in filesystems. When implementing FUSE, most calls are
-/// *for* a given inode.
-///
-/// This means, we need to have a stable mapping of inode numbers to the
-/// corresponding store nodes.
-///
-/// We internally delegate all inode allocation and state keeping to the
-/// inode tracker.
-/// We store a mapping from currently "explored" names in the root to their
-/// inode.
-///
-/// There's some places where inodes are allocated / data inserted into
-/// the inode tracker, if not allocated before already:
-///  - Processing a `lookup` request, either in the mount root, or somewhere
-///    deeper.
-///  - Processing a `readdir` request
-///
-///  Things pointing to the same contents get the same inodes, irrespective of
-///  their own location.
-///  This means:
-///  - Symlinks with the same target will get the same inode.
-///  - Regular/executable files with the same contents will get the same inode
-///  - Directories with the same contents will get the same inode.
-///
-/// Due to the above being valid across the whole store, and considering the
-/// merkle structure is a DAG, not a tree, this also means we can't do "bucketed
-/// allocation", aka reserve Directory.size inodes for each directory node we
-/// explore.
