Why is unpackFamily deprecated?

[chris-martin]

There are a few deprecation warnings here that are missing some documentation - 2156c61 and 655e2f5 - Why are they deprecated, what's wrong with them, and what should we use instead?

In particular, I'm wondering what we'll need to do to upgrade https://github.com/ddfisher/haskell-socket-activation/blob/db6a14da89aa7a5411063303a820d7bde601e665/Network/Socket/Activation.hs#L45

In 3.0, both packFamily and unpackPack still exist with the same signatures internally. So, I think we can export them in 3.0 and delete the deprecation pragmas from 2.7.

If there are any other such APIs, please let me know. I will fix them in 2.7.0.1.

Thanks. The other deprecation warning I'm looking at is SocketStatus. ddfisher/haskell-socket-activation#5 (comment)

The definition of Socket in 3.0 is:

data Socket = Socket (IORef CInt) CInt {- for Show -}

So, we will not have status of sockets.

Done.
Thank you for your report!
