<nag> It's unused. </nag>

Now on a more serious note, I was OK with removing it because it's
slow, unoptimized, duplicates functionality of existing functions in a
poorly implemented way and so on.

For the readability of 99% of the cases, we added ffio_wfourcc(). For
the rest, avio_write() is sufficient because the string is always
fixed-length. What is the (real, not theoretical) case where
avio_wtag() does something that we don't already have in the
before-mentioned functions?

Besides, should probably be private, so ffio instead of avio prefix,
and I doubt that "wtag" is a good function name, but then again as
long as it's private that's not so much of an issue.
