Because I just read some other question, I noticed a plugin that we did not install: the Case History plugin. I looked for it in the Plugin Gallery, but it's not there. I take it it's an internal part of FogBugz that is installed by default?

What will happen if I delete the plugin?

The same applies to Reporting, Reporting - Additional Metrics and Custom Field Breakdowns.

Is there some documentation about the new internal FogBugz 8 plugins?

Yes, all these plugins are related to FogBugz 8's reporting feature.

Briefly:

Reporting

Let's you visualize the cases in a filter as Bar Charts and Pie Charts. It also lets you see line charts that represent how the cases in a filter have changed over time.

Custom Field Breakdowns

Lets you break your charts down by a custom field. (e.g. create a bar chart where each bar represents the number of cases for each possible value of a custom field)

Case History Plugin

Keeps track of how cases have changed over time. It's used by the reporting feature to generate historical line charts.

Reporting - Additional Metrics

This plugin isn't installed by default, but it gives you a couple more metrics that can be used with charts. As users suggest additional metrics, they'll be added to this plugin.
