proposal: x/sys/execabs: deprecate the package #64047

@rolandshoemaker

Description

@rolandshoemaker

x/sys/execabs was introduced after we introduced the internal/execabs package in 2021 in order to fix a security issue, so that the same functionality could be used in external packages. In 1.19 we changed the default behavior of os/exec to match internal/execabs, and removed that package.

At this point it seems reasonable to deprecate x/sys/execabs, and point people at os/exec again.
