Deprecate UAPI bindings, to be removed in 1.0 #4573

@tgross35

Description

@tgross35

We talked at RustWeek and decided that we should remove bindings to the Linux UAPI from this crate. UAPI is huge and changes frequently so is difficult to maintain, and it's not a "libc". Instead, we would like to guide users toward the linux-raw-sys crate, which covers much more because bindings are autogenerated (and the crate is also more organized).

@Amanieu does this sound accurate?

Cc linux-raw-sys maintainer @sunfishcode in case you have any concerns with the above.
