Christian Schwarz 242dd8398c refactor(blob_io): use owned buffers (#6660)
This PR refactors the `blob_io` code away from using slices towards
taking owned buffers and return them after use.
Using owned buffers will eventually allow us to use io_uring for writes.

part of https://github.com/neondatabase/neon/issues/6663

Depends on https://github.com/neondatabase/tokio-epoll-uring/pull/43

The high level scheme is as follows:
- call writing functions with the `BoundedBuf`
- return the underlying `BoundedBuf::Buf` for potential reuse in the
caller

NB: Invoking `BoundedBuf::slice(..)` will return a slice that _includes
the uninitialized portion of `BoundedBuf`_.
I.e., the portion between `bytes_init()` and `bytes_total()`.
It's a safe API that actually permits access to uninitialized memory.
Not great.

Another wrinkle is that it panics if the range has length 0.

However, I don't want to switch away from the `BoundedBuf` API, since
it's what tokio-uring uses.
We can always weed this out later by replacing `BoundedBuf` with our own
type.
Created an issue so we don't forget:
