Many files were put into obsolete/ dir for long time, since 22.1 or
23.1. It does not make sense to continue keeping them there. But it's
just MPO.
How about some policy to handle this? Say keep version-1 or version-2.
For one last time, keep them all in 25.1 release tarball, and then
delete all except "Obsolete-since: 25.1/24.5", and then roll like this.
If anyone needs, they can pull from 25.1 tarball.
And maybe add instruction to each file, something like superceded-by
etc.
