rS328100: Convert ls(1) to not use libxo(3)
Summary

libxo imposes a large burden on system utilities. In the case of ls, that
burden is difficult to justify -- any language that can interact with json
output can use readdir(3) and stat(2).

Logically revert r291607, r285857, r285803, r285734, r285425, r284494, r284489,
r284252, and r284198.
