Mark all features from DNT spec deprecated (#10469)

The https://www.w3.org/TR/tracking-dnt/ spec never made it to W3C Recommendation; instead it was retired as a W3C Working Group Note: https://www.w3.org/TR/2019/NOTE-tracking-dnt-20190117/ In the W3C spec database its formal status is Retired: https://www.w3.org/TR/?tag=privacy&status=ret And the Status section of https://www.w3.org/TR/tracking-dnt/ itself says: > Since its last publication as a Candidate Recommendation, there has > not been sufficient deployment of these extensions (as defined) to > justify further advancement, nor have there been indications of planned > support among user agents, third parties, and the ecosystem at large. All of that is sufficient to merit the features being marked as deprecated in BCD. The affected features are: * the DNT HTTP request header * the Tk HTTP response header * the navigator.doNotTrack property Related MDN change: mdn/content#4960
