This is the first of several PRs to begin the implementation of stan-dev/design-docs#43

This PR simply adds notice to all existing minor deprecations that they will be removed in Stan 2.32.0. This does not apply to the ODE integrators, only the syntax-level changes which can all be replaced with the canonicalizer.

Follow on PRs will:

  • Add warnings for 'future keywords': at the very least array (Incorrect parser errors on variable declarations #953), but also offset, multiplier, etc (basically re-doing Keywords should be reserved in Stan stan#2712)
  • Mark old array syntax as deprecated. This is already stated in the docs but currently produces no warnings.
    As part of this, I think we should run at least the auto-formatter on our test models, if not also the canonicalizer, to prevent the test output from ballooning due to all the old models.

Submission Checklist

Release notes

Marked existing syntax deprecations as expiring in Stan 2.32.0 in accordance with stan-dev/design-docs#43. Users should update their models (manually or with stanc --print-canonical) before that version of Stan.
