inode.7: New page with information about inodes
...
David Howells provided a statx(2) page that duplicated
much of the information from form stat(2). Such duplication
is undesirable, and there are two possible solutions:
* merge the statx() description into the existing
stat(2) page.
* move the common information in stat(2) and statx(2)
to a new page.
The first option suffers from the fact that the stat(2) page
is already rather overloaded with a description of four APIs;
adding a fifth would make the page even more unwieldy!
This patch opts for the second solution. After this,
we must remove the duplicated material from stat(2) and
statx(2).

These details about other systems were added in 1999,

However, they do clutter the page, so remove them.
