commit 38e2273207783e4396aabd47bdab5f28155ad6ae

Add G_GNUC_DEPRECATED_FOR macro
It would be good, error reporting-wise, to be able to signal which
function should be used instead of a deprecated one. GCC 4.5 added an
optional "message" payload to the deprecated attribute, so that:
void f1 (void) __attribute__((deprecated("Use f2 instead")));
Will expand to:
warning: f1 is deprecated: Use f2 instead
Instead of just printing:
warning: f1 is deprecated
Since we already have a G_GNUC_DEPRECATED macro we should provide a
G_GNUC_DEPRECATED_FOR macro defined as:
G_GNUC_DEPRECATED_FOR(bar)
Which would expand the deprecation message to "Use bar instead"
automatically. The deprecation message should probably be similar
to what we use in gtk-doc to match up with the documentation.
