So, a testcase like this:

void bar()

foo();

Should we warn on the invocation of foo() since it's also being called
from within a deprecated function? We are today, but I've gotten a
request for that to not warn. This seems reasonable, for example, if you
deprecate an entire API or something, but still need to compile the
library.
I think we should continue to warn. I can see the arguments on both
sides, but I think warning makes sense. The person compiling the
library should use -Wno-deprecated, and accept that they be calling some
other deprecated function they don't intend to call.
