Use bioformats2raw to convert zarr images to ome-zarr #100

Description

@manzt

Now that we can support the outputs of bioformats2raw, we should use that tool to generate our zarr-based image pyramids. However, bioformats does not create the omero metadata which we'd like to use to specify how to render our images. They've put a lot of thought into what this information should look like, and I think we should replicate for our purposes. We can include this both in the source itself for zarr as well as in the image metadata in raster.json.
