lib.modules.mkRenamedOptionModule

Return a module that causes a warning to be shown if the specified "from" option is defined; the defined value is however forwarded to the "to" option. This can be used to rename options while providing backward compatibility. For example,

mkRenamedOptionModule [ "boot" "copyKernels" ] [ "boot" "loader" "grub" "copyKernels" ]

forwards any definitions of boot.copyKernels to boot.loader.grub.copyKernels while printing a warning.

This also copies over the priority from the aliased option to the non-aliased option.
