refactor(tvix/store/blobsvc): make BlobStore async r/6606
We previously kept the trait of a BlobService sync. This however had some annoying consequences: - It became more and more complicated to track when we're in a context with an async runtime in the context or not, producing bugs like https://b.tvl.fyi/issues/304 - The sync trait shielded away async clients from async worloads, requiring manual block_on code inside the gRPC client code, and spawn_blocking calls in consumers of the trait, even if they were async (like the gRPC server) - We had to write our own custom glue code (SyncReadIntoAsyncRead) to convert a sync io::Read into a tokio::io::AsyncRead, which already existed in tokio internally, but upstream ia hesitant to expose. This now makes the BlobService trait async (via the async_trait macro, like we already do in various gRPC parts), and replaces the sync readers and writers with their async counterparts. Tests interacting with a BlobService now need to have an async runtime available, the easiest way for this is to mark the test functions with the tokio::test macro, allowing us to directly .await in the test function. In places where we don't have an async runtime available from context (like tvix-cli), we can pass one down explicitly. Now that we don't provide a sync interface anymore, the (sync) FUSE library now holds a pointer to a tokio runtime handle, and needs to at least have 2 threads available when talking to a blob service (which is why some of the tests now use the multi_thread flavor). The FUSE tests got a bit more verbose, as we couldn't use the setup_and_mount function accepting a callback anymore. We can hopefully move some of the test fixture setup to rstest in the future to make this less repetitive.
