Breaking change
The HomeKit
auto_startconfiguration option has been deprecated. It dates from the "old"-days to prevent entities not being available yet when HomeKit started. However, nowadays, Home Assistant ensures all entities are available on startup instantly.Therefore, this option is no longer needed. If you still have it in your configuration (and have automations for it to start HomeKit); those can be safely removed.
Proposed change
Basically, see the breaking change described above. This PR doesn't change anything, besides marking it deprecated.
It more than often causes questions; or I see people still thinking it is needed. By marking it deprecated, it will be clear.
