Filesystem: Remove per file descriptor semaphore
The per file descriptor semaphore (field of rtems_libio_t) is unused in RTEMS. There is a considerable memory overhead due to that. A semaphore needs roughly 124 bytes which is huge compared to the approximately 72 bytes for the file descriptor structure itself. Device drivers can create their own synchronization primitives in the open handler on demand.
