Re: [w3ctag/design-reviews] Moving local files with the File System Access API (Issue #805)

I've just revamped https://github.com/whatwg/fs/pull/10/ to make use of the various infrastructural changes I mentioned above and to include the restrictions discussed in the [explainer for non-BucketFileSystem moves](https://github.com/whatwg/fs/blob/main/proposals/MovingNonOpfsFiles.md). Feel free to leave comments here or on that PR

A few things to note:
- The steps for requesting access to the destination are still subject to change depending on what we decide in https://github.com/whatwg/fs/pull/131
- No browsers yet support directory moves outside of the BucketFileSystem, so there are likely more restrictions we'll want to add that - may require some acrobatics with the https://github.com/wicg/file-system-access spec. For example, we should not allow [well-known directories](https://wicg.github.io/file-system-access/#enumdef-wellknowndirectory) to be moved
