Deprecation

In the RSPEC

The rule status (/status in the metadata) should be set to deprecated.

Optionally, /extra/replacementRules can list the rules that replace this rule.

The superseded status from Jira has been superseded by the deprecated status during transition to RSPEC V2.

We detect if replacement rules are specified and if they have been implemented or not.

If they don’t exist, the rule is exported as deprecated, and a text is added to the description
If they are specified, but have not been implemented, the rule is not considered as deprecated (its status is set to ready during the export).
If they are specified and implemented, the status remains deprecated, and a text mentioning the replacement rules is added to the description.

In all cases, the /extra/replacementRules is removed from the metadata available to the analyzer.
