Description

With pulpcore 3.7, backwards incompatible changes in the plugin API will need to be depcrecated for 1-release before being removed.

To do this effectively we need to have a new changelog type made.

To Do

Add a new changelog type which will be included in the plugin API portion of the changelog. The new changelog type should be .deprecated. So if issue 1234 introduces a breaking change the PR would include a CHANGES/plugin_api/1234.deprecated call out of the deprecated function/object.

I found a few other examples of other people using towncrier to document deprecations and they use 'deprecation' as the extension, which I'm prone to since it fits with bugfix and feature (noun vs past-tense verb). Happy to consider 'deprecated' instead though.

Also, I'm thinking we shouldn't limit this to the plugin api? Not sure it's possible to scope to the plugin api and it'd be more work to do so.

I rolled it out to plugins too as I figured they might want to deprecate things ahead of a major release.
