None: they are defined to refer to the same function in the code:
     rb_define_singleton_method(rb_cFile, "unlink", rb_file_s_unlink, -2);
     rb_define_singleton_method(rb_cFile, "delete", rb_file_s_unlink, -2);

Aliased, if you like. Still, `unlink' is the preferred terminology, I think.
(besides, that's the name used for the C function [rb_file_s_unlink])
