Tweak beginning of chapter 8 to mention FSFS.  Very small change.

* src/en/book/ch08.xml 
  (Repository Layer):  mention BDB and FSFS both. 
  (A Brief Inventory of the Subversion Libraries): 
           list libsvn_fs_base and libsvn_fs_fs in table of libraries.

* src/en/book/TODO:  remove item.

 NEEDED FOR 1.1 COMPLETION
 ============================================================================
 
-  * Chapter 8 Section 1.1 "Repository Layer" documents the pre-FSFS state
-    of affairs.  [MIKE]
-
   * Chapter 2's "Repository URLs" sidebar should shrink back to
     nothing but the schema-table, with a xref to a new Chapter 7
     section.  The new chapter 7 section is all about repository URL
