I'm not sure how to solve this cleanly. We can't use any of the usual
deprecation procedures as the spells in z-rejected have the same names.
What should defnitely be done is to add cross-grimoire depends for all
spells with dependencies/optional_dependcies on pine, not sure if there
are any.
For the couple of spells we moved to z-rejected so far, we just added
notes to the grimoire ChangeLog so the user can see what happened.
