Description
These APIs existed to provide access to Roslyn's "DB" index service and "Memory Mapped File" service.
Both were Obsoleted and made into no-op services 2 years ago with #56912 and #62998. Any code attemping to recompile against them already errors. And any code that still uses them gets no-op services that fail on every operation you try (in other words, writing/reading to the DB doesn't actually work) and attemping to write/read to memory mapped files also just no-ops).
Roslyn still has internal versions of these APIs. We intend to continue using the DB api (as that is still very useful for persisting data between vs sessions). However, we are intending on removing hte memory-mapped-file api as that only existed for us to workaround VM limitations imposed by VS being 32bit.
Now that enough time has passed, and that these apis literally do nothing, we can/should remove them.
