Replace byte-at-a-time ReadByte loops with Peek+Discard in the DERP
read path. Peek returns a slice into bufio's internal buffer without
allocating, and Discard advances the read pointer without copying.
Introduce util/bufiox with a BufferedReader interface and ReadFull
helper that uses Peek+copy+Discard as an allocation-free alternative
to io.ReadFull.
- derp.ReadFrameHeader: replace 5× ReadByte with Peek(5)+Discard(5),
reading the frame type and length directly from the peeked slice.
Remove now-unused readUint32 helper.

- key.NodePublic.ReadRawWithoutAllocating: replace 32× ReadByte with
bufiox.ReadFull. Addresses the "Dear future" comment about switching
away from byte-at-a-time reads once a non-escaping alternative exists.
