HONEYCOMB-122 Update reader registry to share similar APIs as writer

+ Extract common registry builder base code
(Reader registry is not flat, so there is not full control over ordering as with writers
but it is sufficient)
+ Split CompositeReader into CompositeReader, SubtreeReader and GenericReader
+ No need to build composite structure in ReaderFactories (registry does that internally)
+ Keep only ReaderCustomizer + ListReaderCustomizer, no root reader (same for writers)
