fs: restore fs patchability in ESM loader

Temporarily restore fs patchability in ESM loader as a workaround
for helping downstream projects that depend on this undocumented
hidden contract transition into using hook proper APIs. This patch
intentionally avoids adding a test and instead adds warning
comments to hopefully steer new code away from depending on it.
