Merge #1270: Improve performance of bdk_file_store::EntryIter

51bd01b fix(file_store): recover file offset after read (志宇)
66dc34e refactor(file_store): Use BufReader but simplify (LLFourn)
c871764 test(file_store): `last_write_is_short` (志宇)
a3aa8b6 feat(file_store)!: optimize `EntryIter` by reducing syscalls (志宇)

Pull request description:

  ### Description

  `EntryIter` performance is improved by reducing syscalls. The underlying file reader is wrapped with `BufReader` (to reduce calls to `read` and `seek`).

  Two new tests are introduced. One ensures correct behavior when the last changeset write is too short. The other ensures the next write position is correct after a short read.

  ### Notes to the reviewers

  This is extracted from #1172 as suggested by #1172 (review).
