[PATCH] manual: Remove non-existent mount options S_IMMUTABLE and S_APPEND.


manual: Remove non-existent mount options S_IMMUTABLE and S_APPEND.

	These were removed in 2010, while addressing [BZ #11235].
	This commit removes their documentation from the manual.

	* manual/sysinfo.texi (S_APPEND): Undocument.
	(S_IMMUTABLE): Likewise.
