Deprecate all the external module utility traits used to add methods for
including the source of the blackbox via annotations. There's no point in
having these traits and not just putting the methods on
ExtModuledirectly. Do this and deprecate the traits.
This is stacked on #5101.
Release Notes
Deprecate external module "has" traits used to annotate an external module with
the Verilog source. Instead, these methods are moved onto the external module
directly, so there is no need to mix in the traits.
