feat(downloader): optimize download throughput with Queue-based threading and raw reads

Fix critical bug where ThreadPoolExecutor was not actually parallelizing downloads (generator functions returned instantly, I/O ran on main thread).

Performance improvements:
Queue-based event dispatch: workers consume generators in threads, push events to a thread-safe Queue for truly parallel segment downloads
Raw socket reads (resp.raw.read) for requests.Session — 30-35% faster than iter_content, with iter_content fallback for CurlSession
File pre-allocation via truncate when Content-Length is known
Hot loop caching: time.time, f.write, stream.raw.read cached as locals
HTTPAdapter connection pooling mounted on passed sessions for reuse
