    ar: deprecate -T option

    Other ar implementations (GNU, LLVM) use -T to mean thin archive
    rather than use only the first fifteen characters of the archive member
    name.  We support both -T and -f for this, with -f documented as an
    alias of -T.

    An exp-run showed that the ports invoking `ar -T` expect thin archives,
    not truncated names.  Switch -f to be the documented flag for this
    behaviour, and emit a warning when -T is used.

    The warning will be changed to an error in the future (in main), once
    ports no longer use -T.
