feat(tvix/nix-compat/nar/writer): check for more data in reader r/6129

We already returned UnexpectedEof in case the reader stopped returning
bytes too early, but similarly we should also fail if there's still
bytes left to be read in the reader passed.

We normally use the NAR writer to produce new NAR files, so the readers
point to the blobs we actually want to render, and having some data left
in there should be an error.

If for some reason the reader points to more data than just the blob,
the `.take` method can be used to limit it to the (known) size.
