reftable/blocksource: stop using `xmmap()`

We use `xmmap()` to map reftables into memory. This function has two problems: - It causes us to die in case the mmap fails. - It ties us to the Git codebase. Refactor the code to use mmap(3p) instead with manual error checking. Note that this function may not be the system-provided mmap(3p), but may point to our `git_mmap()` wrapper that emulates the syscall on systems that do not have mmap(3p) available. Fix `reftable_block_source_from_file()` to properly bubble up the error code in case the map(3p) call fails.
