Subject: Fix 'error 9 while decompressing xz file'

Once we've started writing data to a Sink, we can't restart a download
request, because then we end up writing duplicate data to the
Sink. Therefore we shouldn't handle retries in Downloader but at a
higher level (in particular, in copyStorePath()).

Fixes #2952.

(cherry picked from commit a67cf5a3585c41dd9f219a2c7aa9cf67fa69520b)
