Summary
Now that version 5.10 is released, API that's been deprecated during the 5.9 release can be removed according to the process described in the "Introducing source breaking changes" section of CONTRIBUTING.md.
The plan is to not cherry-pick this into the 6.0 release branch, so in practice we kept this API around for longer than what the deprecation message communicated.
This also updates the deprecation message for API that said that it would be removed after "5.11" is release to instead say that it will be removed after "6.0" is released now that we know that there is no 5.11 version (6.0 is the version after 5.10).
Some API was incorrectly annotated to say that it will be removed after 5.12 is released. This API was deprecated during the 5.10 release, meaning that our guideline would be to remove it after 6.0 (what was known as 5.11) is released. These have also been updated to "6.0".
Dependencies
None.
Testing
Nothing in particular. DocC itself wasn't using this API anymore.
