## Problem
When using `compose.materialIconsExtended` in Compose Multiplatform
1.10+, developers see the deprecation warning:
```
'val materialIconsExtended: String' is deprecated. Specify dependency directly.
```
This message is confusing because it implies you can simply switch to a
direct dependency like other Compose artifacts. However, unlike
`compose.runtime` or `compose.ui`, the `material-icons-extended`
artifact is **intentionally pinned to version 1.7.3** and newer versions
aren't published.
When developers try to follow the deprecation guidance by adding:
```kotlin
implementation("org.jetbrains.compose.material:material-icons-extended:1.10.0")
```
They get a dependency resolution failure because this artifact doesn't
exist at that version.
I ran into this while updating dependencies in a project and spent some
time investigating before discovering that the artifact was
intentionally discontinued after 1.7.3.
## Solution
This PR updates the deprecation message to be more helpful:
```kotlin
@deprecated(
"This artifact is pinned to version 1.7.3 and will not receive updates. " +
"Either use this version explicitly or migrate to Material Symbols (vector resources). " +
"See https://kotlinlang.org/docs/multiplatform/whats-new-compose-180.html",
replaceWith = ReplaceWith("\"org.jetbrains.compose.material:material-icons-extended:1.7.3\"")
)
```
The new message:
- Explains that the artifact is pinned and won't receive updates
- Offers two clear migration paths: use 1.7.3 explicitly, or migrate to
Material Symbols
- Links to the documentation that explains the change
## Context
- PR #5462 introduced the deprecation for all dependency aliases
- PRs #5151 and #5247 pinned the material-icons-extended version to
1.7.3
- The "What's new in 1.8" docs explain the removal but the deprecation
message doesn't connect the dots
## Testing
Built the gradle-plugins module locally and verified the deprecation
message appears correctly.
## Release Notes
### Highlights - Multiple Platforms
- Improved the deprecation message for `compose.materialIconsExtended`
to explain that the artifact is pinned to version 1.7.3 and suggest
migration to Material Symbols
