Description

Assuming this would be fairly straightforward since it's already an fsspec compatible class. What all would be required? I'm happy to work on it. My guess is that there needs to be a new plugin dvc-hf, and an update to dvc-objects to add the scheme.

Research direction

Start by examining how existing fsspec-compatible remotes are integrated, then assess the proposed dvc-hf plugin and dvc-objects scheme changes. Done means HfFileSystem can be used as a DVC remote through the supported workflow, with tests covering the new scheme.
