Remove File System API from the core

Not sure if anyone's still working on this, but just FYI - the File System API is no longer a standard, it's been discontinued and is only supported in Chrome. I think it would make sense to just use IndexedDB in all browsers that support it.

Well according to the readme, Chrome doesn't allow blobs in indexedDB, so we'd lose that ability if dropping File System API. I haven't verified this, though.

it would seem that's outdated information, though. according to CanIUse:

Chrome 36 and below did not support Blob objects as indexedDB values.
