It is not just about reverse dependencies. Assuming we just apply the
pydantic-core new package, and keep the old pydantic (e.g we have to
revert the bump later for various reasons), what happens at build time
or at runtime, if the user enables pydantic-core and pydantic (the old)?

If that makes pydantic-old fail to build or run, that is what we care
about.

But none of that is on master, for the release to come, so we would stil
need the manual to be up-to-date for master.
