[Bug] @Deprecated annotations are not used by IDEs to show warnings

[nicolanrizzo]

This is:

- [X ] a bug report
- [ ] a feature request
- [X ] **not** a usage question (ask them on https://stackoverflow.com/questions/tagged/phpspreadsheet or https://gitter.im/PHPOffice/PhpSpreadsheet)

What is the expected behavior?

IDEs show warnings for deprecated methods (like setCellValueByColumnAndRow).

What is the current behavior?

IDEs do not show warnings for deprecated methods.

What are the steps to reproduce?

<?php

require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

$spreadsheet = new \PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet\Spreadsheet();
$sheet = $spreadsheet->getActiveSheet();
// the method in the next line should be marked deprecated by IDEs, but it's not
$sheet->setCellValueByColumnAndRow(1, 1, 'test');

What features do you think are causing the issue

The annotation @Deprecated does not exist. The annotation @deprecated should be used instead (see: https://docs.phpdoc.org/guide/references/phpdoc/tags/deprecated.html).

Which versions of PhpSpreadsheet and PHP are affected?

The current master branch presents this issue.

Although much of the work will happen in #3166, I have started to subdivide that ticket. Tickets #3174, #3175, and #3176, and four others which I will push later today, also address this problem, and my plan is to merge those before 3166.

[oleibman]

Other PRs are #3177, #3178, #3180, #3181, and #3183. I have moved 3166 to draft status - it probably won't be needed.

[oleibman]

All PR's are now merged. I will close this issue in a few days. If you have a chance to test against master, please do so.

Closing. This should be fixed in master, and will be fixed for all with the next release.
