Deprecate store_add_to_backend() 

A replacement, store_add_to_backend_with_multihash(), has been
introduced in Rocky.  The old function is kept in Rocky for
backward compatability.  This deprecation notice registers our
intent to remove it in Stein.

deprecations:
- |
The glance_store function ``store_add_to_backend``, which is a
wrapper around each store's ``add()`` method, is deprecated in this
release and is subject to removal at the beginning of the Stein
development cycle, following the `OpenStack standard deprecation policy
<https://governance.openstack.org/reference/tags/assert_follows-standard-deprecation.html>`_.
The function is replaced by ``store_add_to_backend_with_multihash``,
which is a similar wrapper, but which takes an additional argument
allowing a caller to specify an secure hashing algorithm. The
hexdigest of this algorithm is returned as one of the multiple
values returned by the function. The function also returns the
md5 checksum for backward compatability.
