Fix #11088.

The File and Directory Entries API originally has the capability to edit the file system, but this behavior is now non-standard. As such, all of the cool introduction about how it's a virtual FS doesn't stand. I have deleted the two outdated pages. Readers who are interested in making a VFS is probably going to find more information in the File System API instead.
