Summary
This commit deprecates the option of passing in a circuit parameter of
a qasm.node.Node type. Passing in qasm ast nodes as a parameter is
rarely used and is not actually done anywhere in the qiskit-terra code
or tests. Additionally there is the qiskit ast_to_circuit converter
which will take a program node object (the root node of a qasm ast) and
convert that directly to a circuit object.
