* fix hard-coded timeout and error panic in API archive download endpoint
This commit updates the `GET /api/v1/repos/{owner}/{repo}/archive/{archive}`
endpoint which prior to this PR had a couple of issues.
1. The endpoint had a hard-coded 20s timeout for the archiver to complete after
which a 500 (Internal Server Error) was returned to client. For a scripted
API client there was no clear way of telling that the operation timed out and
that it should retry.
2. Whenever the timeout _did occur_, the code used to panic. This was caused by
the API endpoint "delegating" to the same call path as the web, which uses a
slightly different way of reporting errors (HTML rather than JSON for
example).
More specifically, `api/v1/repo/file.go#GetArchive` just called through to
`web/repo/repo.go#Download`, which expects the `Context` to have a `Render`
field set, but which is `nil` for API calls. Hence, a `nil` pointer error.
The code addresses (1) by dropping the hard-coded timeout. Instead, any
timeout/cancelation on the incoming `Context` is used.
The code addresses (2) by updating the API endpoint to use a separate call path
for the API-triggered archive download. This avoids producing HTML-errors on
errors (it now produces JSON errors).

* DBContext is just a Context
This PR removes some of the specialness from the DBContext and makes it context
This allows us to simplify the GetEngine code to wrap around any context in future
and means that we can change our loadRepo(e Engine) functions to simply take contexts.
