We don't have a way to make a generalised variable obsolete, I think? I
think it would be helpful if we had.
I haven't looked at how to implement it, but marking the symbol in some
way, and then having the byte compiler examine it (when expanding setf
forms) and outputting a warning doesn't immediately seem impossible.

It was very simple. Now added to Emacs 29.
