proc: remove docbook and example

Example is outdated, it still uses old ->read_proc interfaces and "fb"
example is plain racy.  There are better examples all over the tree.

Docbook itself says almost nothing about /proc and contain quite a number
of simply wrong facts, e.g.  device nodes support.  What it does is
describing at great length interface which are going to be removed.

There are Documentation/filesystems/seq_file.txt in exchange.
