[PATCH v3 06/11] t-reftable-block: use block_iter_reset() instead of block_iter_close()

block_iter_reset() restores a block iterator to its state at the time
of initialization without freeing any memory while block_iter_close()
deallocates the memory for the iterator.

In the current testing setup, a block iterator is allocated and
deallocated for every iteration of a loop, which hurts performance.
Improve upon this by using block_iter_reset() at the start of each
iteration instead. This has the added benifit of testing
block_iter_reset(), which currently remains untested.

Similarly, remove reftable_record_release() for a reftable record
that is still in use.
