docs(ref): Deprecate 'package.authors' (#15068)

### What does this PR try to resolve?

This was left as a future-possibility in
[RFC
#3052](https://rust-lang.github.io/rfcs/3052-optional-authors-field.html).
Without a clear role for this field within Cargo/crates.io,
there seems little reason to actively support it (e.g. #14949, #15027),
including working through feature requests.
I see the potential for having some fields with more specific roles
(where to go for support, where to go for disclosing vulnerabilities,
etc)
but even these run into the mutable data problem of `authors`.
Users can always manage metadata for their own purposes through
`package.metadata`.

The RFC called out clap as an example of something that uses this.
Clap no longer does by default but users can opt-in through a
`help_template`.

For now, this notes the status in the documentation.
When we have[user control over Cargo lint (#12235)
(and figure out namespacing with lints that overlap with Rust),
we can give a warning on this.
Based on feedback from users, we can evaluate removing this field in a
future edition.

This is as discussed in a recent Cargo team meeting

### How should we test and review this PR?

### Additional information

We may want to consider doing similar for `badges`
