Raphael S. Carvalho 1fefe597e6 sstables: Close SSTable reader if index exhaustion is detected in fast forward call
When wiring multi range reader with cleanup, I found that cleanup
wouldn't be able to release disk space of input SSTables earlier.

The reason is that multi range reader fast forward to the next range,
therefore it enables mutation_reader::forwarding, and as a result,
combined reader cannot release readers proactively as it cannot tell
for sure that the underlying reader is exhausted. It may have reached
EOS for the current range, but it may have data for the next one.

The concept of EOS actually only applies to the current range being
read. A reader that returned EOS will actually get out of this
state once the combined reader fast forward to the next range.

Therefore, only the underlying reader, i.e. the sstable reader,
can for certain know that the data source is completely exhausted,
given that tokens are read in monotonically increasing order.

For reversed reads, that's not true but fast forward to range
is not actually supported yet for it.

Today, the SSTable reader already knows that the underlying SSTable
was exhausted in fast_forward_to(), after it call index_reader's
advance_to(partition_range), therefore it disables subsequent
reads. We can take a step further and also check that the index
was exhausted, i.e. reached EOF.

So if the index is exhausted, and there's no partition to read
after the fast_forward_to() call, we know that there's nothing
left to do in this reader, and therefore the reader can be
closed proactively, allowing the disk space of SSTable to be
reclaimed if it was already deleted.

We can see that the combined reader, under multi range reader,
will incrementally find a set of disjoint SSTable exhausted,
as it fast foward to owned ranges
