  This function is meant to be used when defining a backwards-compatibility

  module1.py:
  ```python
  class NewNameForClass: pass
  ```

  module2.py:
  ```python

    name='module1.NewNameForClass',
    func_or_class=module1.NewNameForClass)

  This function works for classes and functions.

  For classes, it creates a new class which is functionally identical (it
  inherits from the original, and overrides its constructor), but which prints
  a deprecation warning when an instance is created. It also adds a deprecation
  notice to the class' docstring.

  For functions, it returns a function wrapped by `tf_decorator.make_decorator`.
  That function prints a warning when used, and has a deprecation notice in its
  docstring. This is more or less equivalent (the deprecation warning has
  slightly different text) to writing:

  ```python
  @deprecated
  def deprecated_alias(original_args):
    real_function(original_args)
  ```

  Args:
    deprecated_name: The name of the symbol that is being deprecated, to be used
      in the warning message. This should be its fully qualified name to avoid
      confusion.
    name: The name of the symbol that is to be used instead of the deprecated
      name. This should be a fully qualified name to avoid confusion.
    func_or_class: The (non-deprecated) class or function for which a deprecated
      alias should be created.
    warn_once: If True (the default), only print a deprecation warning the first
      time this function is used, or the class is instantiated.

  Returns:

    Calling <function> (from <module>) with <arg>=<value> is deprecated and
    will be removed after <date>. Instructions for updating:
      <instructions>

  If `date` is None, 'after <date>' is replaced with 'in a future version'.
  <function> will include the class name if it is a method.

  It also edits the docstring of the function: ' (deprecated arguments)' is
  appended to the first line of the docstring and a deprecation notice is
  prepended to the rest of the docstring.

  Args:
    date: String or None. The date the function is scheduled to be removed.
      Must be ISO 8601 (YYYY-MM-DD), or None
    instructions: String. Instructions on how to update code using the
      deprecated function.
    warn_once: If `True`, warn only the first time this function is called with
      deprecated argument values. Otherwise, every call (with a deprecated
      argument value) will log a warning.
    **deprecated_kwargs: The deprecated argument values.

  Returns:
    Decorated function or method.

  Raises:
    ValueError: If date is not None or in ISO 8601 format, or instructions are
      empty.
