(I think it'd be nice to have this in 2.13.6, no pressure though :)). |
scala#9560 introduced a new meaning for `?` under `-Xsource:3`, but to smooth out the migration it'd be nice if we could also enable this meaning by default. Before doing so, let's deprecate any current usage of `?` as a type that isn't wrapped in backticks.

Like scala#9721, the goal here is to ease cross-compilation between Scala 2 and 3 code as we prepare for `_` as wildcard to be deprecated in Scala 3 (cf scala/scala3#5379). This is technically a source-breaking change, but using a type named ? without backticks is deprecated since 2.13.6 (scala#9626) and defining a type named ? without backticks is disallowed since 2.13.7 (scala#9735). The only known user of ? as a type name was the kind-projector plugin, but support for this syntax was removed from the plugin a year ago (typelevel/kind-projector#186), so I believe this change won't be disruptive.
