Purge sfio support, which has been broken for a decade.
The last Perl release that built with -Dusesfio was v5.8.0, and even that failed many regression tests. Every subsequent release fails to build, and in the decade that has passed we have had no bug reports about this. So it's safe to delete all the code. The Configure related code will be purged in a subsequent commit. 2 references to sfio intentionally remain in fakesdio.h and nostdio.h, as these appear to be for using its stdio API-compatibility layer.

USE_PERLIO - The primary Configure variable that enables PerlIO.
If USE_PERLIO is _NOT_ set
then USE_STDIO above will be set to be conservative.
- If USE_PERLIO is set
- then there are two modes determined by USE_SFIO:
-
- USE_SFIO - If set causes PerlIO_xxx() to be #define-d onto sfio functions.
- A backward compatibility mode for some specialist applications.
-
- If USE_SFIO is not set then PerlIO_xxx() are real functions
+ PerlIO_xxx() are real functions
defined in perlio.c which implement extra functionality
required for utf8 support.
