Add a text field for a discouragement reason #2700

Description

@ddbeck

Talking to the MDN folks, they'd like a brief summary of why a given feature was marked discouraged.

They'd like this so that they can generate, from web-features, deprecation banners that correspond the most common cases on MDN, where there's mostly boilerplate text with a sentence explaining the reason for the deprecation.

This seems in-scope for what we're doing, like descriptions.

For example, for mutation-events:

Mutation events have poor performance and browser vendors plan to remove support for them in 2025.

Or for import-assertions we might have something like:

Import assertions are superseded by import attributes.
