New description:
`cholesky_decomposition()` is needlessly verbose, and the existing
spaghetti code with `_cholesky_decomposition()` is too convoluted to
unwind. Dependencies install the '''new''' `cholesky()` alongside.
The old `cholesky_decomposition()` is so broken that nobody should be
using it anyway, thus it should be no problem to obsolete it.

Comment:
Importing the deprecation machinery seemed to set off some Python
deprecation warnings about messages on exceptions, so those have been
modernized.
