[Bug translator/11756] New: tapset forward compatibility/deprecation support


PR11343 brought us backward compatibility flags/conditionals. Which allows you
to declare functionality as "safe" for a previous version. It would be nice to
extend this into the other direction. So you can easily mark functionality as
being deprecated (might be removed after version...). So that when you use
functionality that might be deprecated in the future you get a warning or with
something like --compatible=future things just don't build when using deprecated
functionality.
