Deprecate abort feature

[chipshort]

closes #2243

Unfortunately there is no native way to cause a compiler warning, so this is a bit of a hack.

Ugh, I wish Rust had the ability to actually emit warnings instead of having to resort to these hacks..

Should we backport this and #2350 to the 2.2 branch such that we can remove it on main for 3.0?

You mean publish a patch version with the deprecation and then remove it on main? I think that makes sense.

[webmaster128]

Yeah, given that no 2.3 is planned I was wondering where the intermediate step goes. It would allow users to remove the feature during 2.2.x times and have one less thing to worry about when 3.0 is out.

This change breaks almost no user since abort is not explicit for most users but just a standard feature from cosmwasm-std. The abort import is available at least since 1.0.0.
