Rather than point at some similar previous case, here's how I'd do it:
Make a new commit to the the elpa.git branches `modus-<foo>-theme` which
basically gut the `modus-<foo>-theme.el` files, replacing them with tiny
files containing just the header (where `Package-Requires:` says
`modus-themes`) plus some shenanigans to look for the directory holding
the `modus-themes.el` file and load the matching `modus-<foo>-theme.el`
from it. And maybe emit a warning just before doing that (both to
state that the package is obsolete and to warn the users about the
redirect, so they might know where to start looking in case something
goes wrong).
