Reading José's recent blog

  What’s new in Elixir – Apr/19
  http://blog.plataformatec.com.br/2019/04/whats-new-in-elixir-apr-19

made me think about a possible enhancement to "mix xref deprecated".
Specifically, I'd like it to warn me about deprecated practices in
file system organization and use.  For example, José says that

> The first change is that we will no longer generate config/config.exs
> for projects generated with mix new.  Relying on configuration is
> undesired for most libraries and the generated config files pushed
> library authors in the wrong direction.  Furthermore, mix new
> --umbrella will no longer generate a configuration for each child app;
> instead, all configuration should be declared in the umbrella root.
> That’s how it has always behaved, we are now making it explicit.


Mix could help us pull existing projects into compliance by telling us
about it when they contain deprecated file usage.  To be clear, I don't
really care if the relevant command string is "mix xref deprecated"; I
just want a quick, informative report on things I should address.
