Move dtype settings out of metadata field into the root of Tensorstore spec
Before, dtype used to be in the metadata field of tensorstore spec because of it was the legacy way to config the dtype. This setting doesn't understand the "str" name, hence, there was special logic to translate bfloat for example.
This CL moves it out of the metadata field and put the dtype directly into the Tensorstore spec to eliminate special dtype translation logic. This will also add support of other quantized types such as int4.
