Patrick Steinhardt 655e18d6b4 reftable/block: create public interface for reading blocks
While users of the reftable library wouldn't generally require access to
individual blocks in a reftable table, there are valid usecases where
one may require low-level access to them. One such upcoming usecase in
the Git codebase is to implement consistency checks for the reftable
library where we want to verify each block individually.

Create a public interface for reading blocks. The interface isn't yet
complete and lacks e.g. a way to read individual records from a block.
Such missing functionality will be backfilled in subsequent commits.

Note that this change also requires us to expose `reftable_buf`, which
is used by the `reftable_block_first_key()` function.
