[Fix] Clean up all explict DataLoader usage

 The above example demonstrates the basic workflow of using `libcachesim` for cache simulation:
 
-1. Use `DataLoader` to download a cache trace file from an S3 bucket.
-2. Open and efficiently process the trace file with `TraceReader`.
-3. Initialize a cache object (here, `S3FIFO`) with a specified cache size (e.g., 1MB).
-4. Run the simulation on the entire trace using `process_trace` to obtain object and byte miss ratios.
-5. Optionally, process only a portion of the trace by specifying `start_req` and `max_req` for partial simulation.

 This workflow applies to most cache algorithms and trace types, making it easy to get started and customize your experiments.

+1. Open the trace file with `TraceReader`, specifying the trace type and any reader initialization parameters. The URI starting with `s3://`, will download a trace file from an S3 bucket.
 3. Configure the analysis options with `AnalysisOption` to enable or disable specific analyses (such as request rate, size, etc.).
 4. Optionally, set additional analysis parameters with `AnalysisParam`.
 5. Create a `TraceAnalyzer` object with the reader, output directory, and the chosen options and parameters.
