Remove long-unmaintained ftape driver subsystem.
It's bitrotten, long unmaintained, long hidden under BROKEN_ON_SMP, etc. As scheduled in feature-removal-schedule.txt, and ack'd several times on lkml. Signed-off-by: Jeff Garzik <jeff@garzik.org>

- If you have a tape drive that is connected to your floppy
- controller, say Y here.
-
- Some tape drives (like the Seagate "Tape Store 3200" or the Iomega
- "Ditto 3200" or the Exabyte "Eagle TR-3") come with a "high speed"
- controller of their own. These drives (and their companion
- controllers) are also supported if you say Y here.
-
- If you have a special controller (such as the CMS FC-10, FC-20,
- Mountain Mach-II, or any controller that is based on the Intel 82078
- FDC like the high speed controllers by Seagate and Exabyte and
- Iomega's "Ditto Dash") you must configure it by selecting the
- appropriate entries from the "Floppy tape controllers" sub-menu
- below and possibly modify the default values for the IRQ and DMA
- channel and the IO base in ftape's configuration menu.
-
- If you want to use your floppy tape drive on a PCI-bus based system,
- please read the file <file:drivers/char/ftape/README.PCI>.
-
- The ftape kernel driver is also available as a runtime loadable
- module. To compile this driver as a module, choose M here: the
- module will be called ftape.
