Update Azure Functions documentation and scripts:

- Modify links to Azure CLI samples for creating function apps.
- Update date in Azure CLI samples metadata.
- Revise references to mounting file shares in TensorFlow documentation.
- Remove outdated CLI script samples for creating function apps.
- Add redirects for removed scripts to the Azure CLI samples page.
