This was already done. When a command is deprecated it continues to work but
raises a warning (with a message pointing the user to the new command).
Changing the `allowdeprecated` option to `false` when loading the package
elevates those warnings to errors.
In the following version commands which were previously deprecated are marked
as obsolete. Obsolete commands do not work, but raise an error pointing to the
new syntax.
Because we cannot continue to maintain these old names forever (otherwise what
would be the purpose of renaming them in the first place), in the following
version the command name is dropped entirely.
