docs(snix/docs/TODO): drop store composition setting

Combinators are tracked in #135, a followup for `CombinedBlobService` is
tracked in #136.
User-facing composition config is tracked in #137.

Everything else mostly already landed with the rest of the store
composition, so can be dropped.

is probably still not too clear.
- Absorb the rest of //snix/website into this.
### Store composition
- Combinators: list-by-priority, first-come-first-serve, cache
- Store composition hierarchies (@yuka).
- URL format too one-dimensional.
- We want to have nice and simple user-facing substituter config, including
sensible default wrappers for caching, retries, fallbacks, as well as
granular control for power-users.
- Current design idea:
- Have a concept similar to rclone config (map with store aliases as
keys, allowing to refer to stores by their alias from other parts of
the config).
It allows both referring to by name, as well as ad-hoc definition:
https://rclone.org/docs/#syntax-of-remote-paths
- Each store needs to be aware of its "instance name", so it can be
included in logs, metrics, …
- Have a "instantiation function" traversing such a config data structure,
creating store instances and plugging them together, ultimately returning
a dyn …Service interface.
- No reconfiguration/reconcilation for now
- Making URLs the primary data format would get ugly quite easily (hello
multiple layers of escaping!), so best to convert the existing URL
syntax to our new config format on the fly and then use one codepath
to instantiate/assemble. Similarly, something like the "user-facing
substituter config" mentioned above could aalso be converted to such a
config format under the hood.
- Maybe add a ?cache=$other_url parameter support to the URL syntax, to
easily wrap a store with a caching frontend, using $other_url as the
"near" store URL.
### Store Config
- We might also have common options global over all backends, like chunking
parameters for chunking blobservices. Think where this would fit in.
