context: add deprecation warnings for deprecated types of changeids

It's close to code freeze, and dropping support for repo['123'] and
repo ['my-bookmark'] and repo['deadbeef'] is pretty dispruptive, so
this just adds deprecation warnings so extensions can easily find the
places they need to fix.
