### DEP0162: `fs.write()`, `fs.writeFileSync()` coercion to string

<!-- YAML
changes:
- version: REPLACEME
pr-url: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/42149
description: Documentation-only deprecation.
-->

Type: Documentation-only

Implicit coercion of objects with own `toString` property, passed as second
parameter in [`fs.write()`][], [`fs.writeFile()`][], [`fs.appendFile()`][],
[`fs.writeFileSync()`][], and [`fs.appendFileSync()`][] is deprecated.
Convert them to primitive strings.
