[PATCH 1/1] repoman: deprecate netsurf.eclass.

While investigating bug 489542, it became clear that the netsurf
eclass is deprecated in spirit if not in fact. All of the newer
netsurf ebuilds use a custom function loaded from a script that is
shipped in netsurf-buildsystem's $FILESDIR to do (some of) what the
eclass used to do. That function probably does belong in an eclass,
but at this point, we should throw this thing out and start from
scratch.

By deprecating the eclass, we make sure that no one else inherits it
during the time it takes to purge the two remaining consumers. Then,
once those are gone, the build system script magic can be put back
into an eclass, and its consumers updated one-at-a-time.
