b1: Deprecate manifest

[haussmann]

Vendor site has removed all references to this software and switched to an online-only model.
Last and only update of this softrware was in November 2022.

I believe this software should be deprecated.

Relates to #16379

Poem

🐰 I straightened a line, kept every part,
A tiny tidy tweak from the heart,
Nothing broken, nothing new to mend,
A hush, a nibble, and then I hop on, friend. 🥕

📓 Common learnings

Learnt from: o-l-a-v
Repo: ScoopInstaller/Extras PR: 16378
File: bucket/compactgui.json:20-22
Timestamp: 2025-10-19T13:58:23.389Z
Learning: In the ScoopInstaller/Extras repository, the CompactGUI manifest removed hash verification from the autoupdate block because the hash verification mechanism (scraping SHA-256 from release page HTML) is no longer available in newer CompactGUI releases. GitHub asset digests exist in beta releases but not in v3.8.0, and Scoop doesn't have built-in support for extracting from GitHub API asset digests.

deprecated/b1.json (1)

2-5: Good deprecation approach: clear messaging while preserving manifest functionality.

The "##" metadata key at the top is the appropriate convention for Scoop manifests, and the deprecation notice clearly communicates the vendor's transition and last update timeline without breaking existing functionality.
