This and the following commit seek to decouple the libbitcoinkernel
library from the shutdown code. As a library, it should it should have
its own flexible interrupt infrastructure without relying on node-wide
globals.
The commit takes the first step towards this goal by de-globalising
`ShutdownRequested` calls in kernel code.

The fs.* files are already part of the libbitcoin_util library. With the
introduction of the fs_helpers.* it makes sense to move fs.* into the
util/ directory as well.
This is an extraction of filesystem related functions from util/system
into their own utility file.
The background of this commit is an ongoing effort to decouple the
libbitcoinkernel library from the ArgsManager defined in system.h.
Moving these functions out of system.h allows including them from a
separate source file without including the ArgsManager definitions from
system.h.
