Add a text file which lists features to be removed from U-Boot
in the future.

The initial entry plans for removal of individual I2C commands.

 I wasn't sure what to make of the 'Deprecate "autosrc" command' on
 http://www.denx.de/wiki/U-Boot/TaskFeatureRemovalSchedule - I'm
 not familiar with it and didn't see any references to it in the
 current U-Boot tree.

+The following is a list of files and features that are going to be
+removed from the U-Boot source tree.  Every entry should contain what
+exactly is going away, why it is happening, and who is going to be doing
+the work.  When the feature is removed from U-Boot, it should also
+be removed from this file.
+
+---------------------------
+
+What:	Individual I2C commands
+When:	April 2009
+Why:	Per the U-Boot README, individual I2C commands such as "imd", "imm",
+	"imw", etc are deprecated. The single "i2c" command which is
+	currently enabled via CONFIG_I2C_CMD_TREE contains the same
+	functionality as the individual I2C commands. The individual
+	I2C commands should be removed as well as any references to
+	CONFIG_I2C_CMD_TREE.
