We should make the module print a deprecation warning which would be
more like a 'transition' warning. So that people know the module is
being moved to it's own package.

We've a deprecated package in oslo-incubator. It may complicate things
a bit but, moving obsolete packages there may make sense. I'd also
update the module - or package - and make it print a deprecation
warning.
