`ENOTCAPABLE` was an error code that is used as part of the rights system, from CloudABI. There is a set of flags associated with each file descriptor listing which operations can be performed with the file descriptor, and if an attempt is made to perform an operation with a file descriptor that isn't permitted by its rights flags, it fails with `ENOTCAPABLE`. WASI is removing the rights system. For example, WebAssembly/wasi-libc#294 removed support for translating `ENOTCAPABLE` into POSIX error codes, on the assumption that engines should stop using it. So as another step to migrating away from the rights system, remove uses of the `ENOTCAPABLE` error.
