Recently we added a bunch of deprecated re-exports while moving things
out of the util module. Turns out while the code reads like it works,
`deprecated` actually only works for functions, not types or modules
etc.
Remove the non-functional deprecated lines and elect to _not_ re-export
things we moved. Release 0.30 is going to break a lot of code but there
is no real nice way to resolve that. We will need good release notes and
a public apology probably :)
Fix import statements that still rely on `util::bip32` - these should
have been fixed when we moved the `bip32` module.
The `base58` module is for encoding and decoding, it makes sense for the
public functions to be called `encode` and `decode`. We also have some
functions that operate on data with a checksum, for these it makes sense
to tack `check` onto the _end_ of the function name.
With this applied the public API is:
- decode
- decode_check
- encode
- encode_check
- encode_check_to_fmt
Now we have MSRV of 1.41.1 we can use the `from_le_bytes` and
`to_be_bytes` methods, these became available in Rust 1.32.
Remove the `endian` module replacing its logic with calls to methods on
the respective stdlib integer types.
In preparation for emptying the `internal_macros` module move the
`serde_string_impl` and `serde_struct_human_string_imp` macros to the
`serde_utils` module.
Rationale: `internal_macros` stuff can go over in the `internals` crate
now that we have one. The serde macros could go over there but we have a
`serde_utils` module that holds code for implementing serde traits,
these two macros are exactly that.
`impl_array_newtype` is an internal macro, move it to a new, ever so
meaningfully named, `macros` module.
Use `#[macro_export]`, no other changes to the macro.
We are attempting to flatten the `util` module; move the `bip32` module
to the crate root out of `util`.
Currently `src/util/` is ignored by the formatter, this patch does not
do formatting, will be done later.
