New description:
The docstring for {{{partitions_restricted}}} says that the function is
deprecated and one should instead use {{{RestrictedPartitions}}}.
However, this also turns out to be deprecated. It would be good to fix
this.
And here is a more serious problem: the way that is now recommended for
obtaining the list of restricted partitions is {{{Partitions(n,
parts_in=S)}}}. However, {{{Partitions}}} cannot have both {{{parts_in}}}
and {{{length}}} specified, so not all the functionality of the old
{{{partitions_restricted}}} remains available.
