Files Historic Plugin Accessor IO Capabilities Improvements

[ata-nas]

Story Form

As a Block Node User/Operator
I want to have improved IO capabilities
So that the application is more flexible and comprehensive

Technical Notes

• currently the Files Historic Plugin's IO capabilities have some limitations
  • we determine the actual compression type of a persisted block based on a file extension, is this sufficient enough? Should we check magic numbers etc. etc.
• we should attempt to also do some performance improvements as needed
• we should also probably have a retry mechanism for IO operations
