docs: mark repo deprecated; point at uPortal-start retirement PR (#320)
Problem: of the eleven widgets this repo ships, seven depend on Google APIs that were sunset years ago (Google Loader 2015, Maps v3.6 unsupported, Google Gadgets ~2016) and the remaining widgets are JSP demos, trivial date/dictionary/embed shapes, or already-in-uPortal-core (AppLauncherPortlet). The repo continues to draw renovate-driven dependency-bump churn for code that nobody can run usefully. Goal: signal the deprecation clearly to anyone arriving at the repo and to deployers still pinning a version, and point at the uPortal-start PR that drops the overlay from the default quickstart bundle. Changes: - README.md: insert a "DEPRECATED -- no longer maintained" block at the top with the rationale, the recommended deployer action (remove overlay, drop quickstart definitions binding to `/jasig-widget-portlets`), and a pointer at uPortal-Project/uPortal-start#696. Original README content is preserved below the divider for historical context. Notes: the repo will remain on GitHub for historical reference but receives no further releases. Subscribers who still depend on the dictionary, calendar, or youtube widget shapes can have them ported to small Lit web components on request -- the shapes are trivial.

## DEPRECATED -- no longer maintained
2+
3+
This repository is deprecated and will not receive further updates. Of the eleven widgets it bundles, seven depend on Google APIs that were sunset years ago (Google Loader 2015, Maps v3.6, Google Gadgets ~2016); the remaining widgets are JSP demos, trivial date/dictionary/embed shapes, or have been absorbed into uPortal core (`AppLauncherPortlet`).

uPortal-start no longer ships `JasigWidgetPortlets` in the default overlay set (see [uPortal-Project/uPortal-start#696](https://github.com/uPortal-Project/uPortal-start/pull/696)).
6+
7+
**Recommended action for deployers:** remove this overlay from your deployment and drop any quickstart portlet definitions that bind to `/jasig-widget-portlets`. If you still actively use the dictionary, calendar, or youtube widget shapes, open an issue -- they can be ported to a small Lit web component on request.
