Auto merge of #26734 - Gankro:deprecate-vecmap, r=alexcrichton

VecMap doesn't really fit with the current standard library's strategy (small!).

I've mirrored the code to https://github.com/contain-rs/vec-map

but @GBGamer has already claimed the name on crates.io a couple months ago for the same purpose. It hasn't been updated since, though.
