feat(jobs): jobstart(…,{term=true}), deprecate termopen() #31343

Problem:
`termopen` has long been a superficial wrapper around `jobstart`, and
has no real purpose. Also, `vim.system` and `nvim_open_term` presumably
will replace all features of `jobstart` and `termopen`, so centralizing
the logic will help with that.

Solution:
- Introduce `eval/deprecated.c`, where all deprecated eval funcs will live.
- Introduce "term" flag of `jobstart`.
- Deprecate `termopen`.

Spawns {cmd} in a new pseudo-terminal session connected
to the current (unmodified) buffer. Parameters and behavior
are the same as |jobstart()| except "pty", "width", "height",
and "TERM" are ignored: "height" and "width" are taken from
the current window. Note that termopen() implies a "pty" arg
to jobstart(), and thus has the implications documented at
|jobstart()|.
Returns the same values as jobstart().
Terminal environment is initialized as in |jobstart-env|,
except $TERM is set to "xterm-256color". Full behavior is
described in |terminal|.
Use |jobstart()| with `{term: v:true}` instead.
