2146	Deprecate load_bytecode op	whiteknight		"The load_bytecode op has several problems, not the least of which is bad error-handling semantics (#560) and magical, confusing, unextendable behavior based on file extension. I am working to create a new load_bytecode op with improved semantics, which returns a PackfileView PMC with the loaded result. The new version is not in master yet, but should be shortly after 3.6

I would like to deprecate the old 1-argument form of load_bytecode, so that we can start upgrading users to the newer version over the coming months."	deprecation	new	normal		core	master	medium						all
