Xcos deprecated blocks

In each Xcos release, some blocks may be deprecated or removed. Deprecated blocks do not appear in the palette anymore, and thus cannot be created anymore. Instead, the "Suggested replacement block" from the list below should be used.

Xcos files that contain deprecated blocks can still be opened in Xcos; but (for some of them) there will be a warning when edited, and when a simulation is executed.

In future versions of Xcos, deprecated blocks may be removed. However, we will always ensure that there are blocks to replace deprecated or removed blocks.

(see also #7500)
