bitbake: fetch/local: Drop FILESDIR

This has long since been deprecated and is no longer used anywhere, FILESPATH
is the commonly used varaible which offers much more flexibility. Remove
the FILESDIR code and references from bitbake.

(Bitbake rev: 751c9dc51fd01fa64a1ff37ba2638110335f71af)

Specifies directories BitBake uses when searching for
patches and files.
The "local" fetcher module uses these directories when
handling <filename>file://</filename> URLs if the file
was not found using
<link linkend='var-FILESPATH'><filename>FILESPATH</filename></link>.

The <filename>FILESDIR</filename> variable is
