A simple Go module to determine when deprecated functions are explicitly tagged as DEPRECATED on pkg.go.dev.

go-libp2p has some functions that are explicitly marked as deprecated via a newline followed by a line starting with // Deprecated:. E.g.,

// EnableAutoRelay configures libp2p to enable the AutoRelay subsystem.
// ...
//
// Deprecated: Use EnableAutoRelayWithStaticRelays or EnableAutoRelayWithPeerSource
func EnableAutoRelay(opts ...autorelay.Option) Option {
    // implementation here…
}

pkg.go.dev tags these function as DEPRECATED.

But there are other functions that are marked as deprecated in the source code but are not tagged as DEPRECATED on pkg.go.dev. E.g.,

// DialRanker configures libp2p to use d as the dial ranker. To enable smart
// dialing use `swarm.DefaultDialRanker`. use `swarm.NoDelayDialRanker` to
// disable smart dialing.
// Deprecated: use SwarmOpts(swarm.WithDialRanker(d)) instead
func DialRanker(d network.DialRanker) Option {
    // implementation here…
}

In this case, the function is not tagged as DEPRECATED, despite the // Deprecated: comment in the source code.

I think pkg.go.dev requires a newline before "// Deprecated:".

This is a simple Go module that should appear on pkg.go.dev. It includes a few functions.

• One isn't deprecated at all (used as a control)
• One is deprecated with a newline before the // Deprecated: line
• One is deprecated without a newline before the // Deprecated: line

I want to see what functions are actually tagged as deprecated by pkg.go.dev.

If my hypothesis is true, I'll make a PR to fix the deprecated comments in go-libp2p.
