Missing a "info" or "warning" message at the call-site of @deprecated functions #2055

It would be nice to have a info squiggly when we call deprecated functions.

Next to this the documentation hover is showing the function's @deprecated and @synopsis tags literally. Perhaps we could typeset this a bit. It's possible to reuse rascal-tutor code for this when we merged it into the rascal project.

The good news:

this code was behing a compiler flag because the text of deprecated messages was below stand at the time.
I have reviewed and improved these messages.
I have turned the flag on (probably this whole flag will go.

Other news:

It would be nice to typeset messages but this is for an other time/issues
