Research direction

Start with upstairs/src/volume.rs at lines 1596-1598 and trace the existing VCR replacement path. Determine how replacement behaves when the VCR has a ROP backed by a file, then verify that file-based ROP replacement works for the test setups described in the issue.

Description

https://github.com/oxidecomputer/crucible/blob/4ec81526fc87260d51d1cbcfc8069eb3a0a4c60a/upstairs/src/volume.rs#L1596-L1598

We don't need this for the product, but it would be nice if we could support VCR replacement
when the VCR has a ROP based on a file backend. Some test setups use this.
