[keycloak-dev] deprecated removals in future

[Stian Thorgersen]

-1 It'll actually be more work to drop backwards compatibility for the model as we'd have to write a new "starting" point. For JSON representations it's just messy and has deprecated stuff in it because I did a crap job at implementing it. If we write a proper way to migrate json representations we won't need this and it'll just be a transformation pipeline that transforms the json to match the representation classes.
