The logging.warn() method as an alias for logging.warning() is a mysterious function in the logging module, as far as I can tell it was depreciated the minute it was added, originally only added for backwards compatibility.

Up until 3.3 it was undocumented, and after that it was Depreciated and was set to be removed in 3.4 (https://bugs.python.org/issue13235). At this point, I believe this function only serves to create confusion as an obscure alternative to logging.warning() and should probably be removed in 3.11.

I'm not sure if there will be interest in merging this PR since it hasn't happened in all this time, but then again we've been emitting deprecation warnings from these functions and methods for a *decade* now.

If the decision at this point is still not to move forward with removal, we should just remove the deprecation warnings and document it as a supported and bona-fide alias. Should that be the case, I'll close the PR I just created and get started with that work instead.
