Deprecating volatile on return types seems like a good idea,
but on parameters it has a valid uses. I find the suggestion
that one can copy those into a new variable not very convincing.
It would be another special exception. We should make the
language simpler and not more complicated.

There is also no reason to include qualifiers in prototypes,
so these do not have to leak implementation details. One
could consider deprecating all qualifiers on parameters in
function declarations that are not part of a function
definitions. This would make more sense to me.
