Please review this change to undo, or remove the forRemoval=true element
from the Deprecated annotation of a number of security APIs. Since
marking these APIs for removal in a future version of SE, it has since
been reported that some external applications/code are still using these
APIs, and there is concern that there may not be enough advance notice
to adapt their code to transition away from these legacy APIs and/or
replace them with newer APIs before they would be removed.
