* Migrate from component-depends-on to action-depends-on
** I contend a future version of ASDF will replace
(component-depends-on operation component)
with (action-depends-on plan operation component).
This allows for different normalization strategies for dependencies
(including strategies that avoid resolving things to NIL),
a reified context for featurep checks, etc.
** Easy but long backward-compatible transition:
*** get all users to use the new gf and keep extending both new and old gf,
meanwhile the new gf has an around method that actually calls the old gf
except in testing mode and/or if we can check that they're using the new convention
*** when everyone has migrated, remove the old mode and the short-circuit.
** However, we cannot deprecate component-depends-on yet — not until we have
some transition in place to a better interface.
