[PATCH] docs/about/deprecated: Remove paragraph about initial deprecation in 2.10

[Thomas Huth]

When we introduced the deprecation rule of keeping deprecated features
for two more releases, we had to state that we would not remove features
by surprise that had already been marked as deprecated before. Nowadays,
this paragraph is not needed anymore, so we can remove it now.

 What follows is a list of all features currently marked as
