Perhaps a variant of the disabled-command machinery for replaced
functionality? Something like:

 (put 'linum-mode 'replaced "This library was made obsolete in Emacs 29.1.
We recommend...")

If this need doesn't deserve a generalized approach, it looks like a
one-off for linum based on #'command-query could work.

Hope this helps,
