Description

The NuGet package manager doesn't appear to pass through the "deprecation" signal from nuget.org:

https://api.nuget.org/v3/registration5-gz-semver2/microsoft.rest.clientruntime/index.json

It'd be nice to make sure this is included in oss-metadata.

Research direction

Start by tracing the NuGet package-manager handling for the registration API response at the provided nuget.org URL, then inspect how package metadata is mapped into oss-metadata. Done means the deprecation signal is preserved in the generated metadata and the relevant behavior is covered by an appropriate test.
