refactor: remove unused, duplicated code in deprecate module (#14579)

 * remove obsolete tests

 * remove unused deprecate API

 * make a warnOnce helper for the deprecate methods

 * misc. copyediting, e.g. variable names, whitespace

 * test that any deprecation warns once at most

 * use strict
