This marks several methods, classes and interfaces as deprecated in order to phase out manual calls to bind() and BackgroundPowerSaver that have long been causes of confusion and app bugs. Replacement mechanisms are simpler, more intuitive and less error-prone.
Backward compatibility is designed into this change, meaning apps using the discouraged APIs will see no impact other than deprecation warnings.
