Summary of Changes
The platform bootstrap was registering the old form entity paths but that is no longer necessary because the paths no longer exist.
Additionally, the form helper was default registering path lookups based on the original coding without namespace or autoload support. This behavior is actually now entirely unnecessary as all core form entities are autoloaded, so this path registration is dropped.
Testing Instructions
CMS, especially views with forms, still functions.

That pluralization was only for the libraries/joomla/form/(fields|rules) paths. Which is not necessary at all with autoloading. The pluralization logic still exists in MVC. So if anything, the documentation simply reads "the libraries/joomla/form/fields and libraries/joomla/form/rules directories are no longer registered to find form classes, all form classes should be autoloaded instead".
Adding docs required here as we should document we're no longer automatically pluralising the paths
