This also deprecates the cyclomatic_complexity lint which had been renamed into cognitive_complexity back in 2019.

See discussion on Zulip.

Are we deprecating it in this release?

It would be for 1.90, so in about 13 weeks.

This also deprecates the `cyclomatic_complexity` lint which had been
renamed into `cognitive_complexity` back in 2019.

Question: would there be any interest to actually have a lint that works as specified in the Cognitive Complexity spec?
I thought that this lint wasn't working as it should seeing that it did not trigger on my code where i expected it would,
and looking at it's source, yep, it's a "name squatter".
