Migrate from using io.ReadSeeker to io.ReaderAt.
This provides the following benefits:
- We can now use pkg/fd package which does not take ownership
of the file descriptor. So it does not close the fd when garbage collected.
This reduces scope of errors from unexpected garbage collection of io.File.
- It enforces the offset parameter in every read call.
It does not affect the fd offset nor is it affected by it. Hence reducing
scope of error of using stale offsets when reading.
- We do not need to serialize the usage of any global file descriptor anymore.
So this drops the mutual exclusion req hence reducing complexity and
congestion.
