Arpad Müller 8c13296add Remove BlockReader::read_blk in favour of BlockCursor (#5015)
## Problem

We want to make `read_blk` an async function, but outside of
`async_trait`, which allocates, and nightly features, we can't use async
fn's in traits.

## Summary of changes

* Remove all uses of `BlockReader::read_blk` in favour of using block
  cursors, at least where the type of the `BlockReader` is behind a
  generic
* Introduce a `BlockReaderRef` enum that lists all implementors of
  `BlockReader::read_blk`.
* Remove `BlockReader::read_blk` and move its implementations into
  inherent functions on the types instead.

We don't turn `read_blk` into an async fn yet, for that we also need to
modify the page cache. So this is a preparatory PR, albeit an important
one.

Part of #4743.
