In fstream.cc, use the convenient new temporary_buffer<char>::aligned()
function for creating an aligned temporary buffer - instead of repeating
its implementation.

The file_input_stream interface was messy: it was not fiber safe (e.g., code
doing seek() in the middle of an ongoing read_exactly()), and went against
the PIMPL philosophy.
So this patch removes the file_input_stream class, and replaces it with a
completely different design:
We now have in fstream.hh a global function:
input_stream<char>
make_file_input_stream(
lw_shared_ptr<file> file, uint64_t offset = 0,
uint64_t buffer_size = 8192);
In other words, instead of "seeking" in an input stream, we just open a new
input stream object at a particular offset of the given file. Multiple input
streams might be concurrently active on the same file.
Note how make_file_input_stream now returns a regular "input_stream", not a
subtype, and it can be used just like any normal input_stream to read the stream
starting at the given position.
This patch makes "input_stream" a "final" type: we no longer subclass it in our
code, and we shouldn't in the future because it goes against the PIMPL design
(the subclass should be of the inner workings, like the data_source_impl, not
of input_stream).

Our file_stream interface supports seek, but when we try to seek to arbitrary
locations that are smaller than an aio-boundary (say, for instance, f->seek(4)),
we will end up not being able to perform the read.
We need to guarantee the reads are aligned, and will then present to the caller
the buffer properly offset.
