Add more verbose error handling for closing, reduce locking

This commit introduces error returns in various places and is explicit
about closing persisted blocks.
{Index,Chunk,Tombstone}Readers are more consistent about their Close()
method. Whenever a reader is retrieved, the corresponding close method
must eventually be called. We use this to track pending readers against
persisted blocks.

Querier's against the DB no longer hold a read lock for their entire
lifecycle. This avoids long running queriers to starve new ones when we
have to acquire a write lock when reloading blocks.
