[FEAT]: Download Release archive files

[adwitkow]

Describe the need

I understand that this issue is in a way a duplicate of #2742 but the way it's presented there is... far from perfect.

Octokit.js has a way to access the release archives (octokit/octokit.js#2369 (comment)) so it would be nice to also have such feature in octokit.net. The workaround with a separate HttpClient presented in #2742 is in my opinion against the purpose of octokit.net (not to mention that it's generally low quality, it doesn't take socket exhaustion into account - and would it even work if it doesn't include the user agent header? And I'm not going to comment on the ChatGPT-generated garbage).

A way to grab the buffer and download the zip/tar ball should be exposed in octokit.net without the consumers being forced to apply weird hacks.
