[package_config] Remove support for .packages files.

[lrhn]

A more backwards compatible version of #2030

• Doesn't increment major version number. (Because test.)
• Doesn't add final to classes, only @sealed
• Doesn't remove the old functions, just deprecates them.
• Doesn't make relational operators instance methods (wait for the classes to become final for that).
  • But does a little tweaking of the comments and errors.

Use newest lints and therefore newest SDK constraint. And therefore a complete re-format. (Fourth commit is just a reformat to 3.7 format.)

Planned to land after #2031. (And we're there.)
