net-misc/iputils: rename USE=traceroute to USE=traceroute6 and mark as deprecated
iputils always did only provide traceroute6. Renaming USE flag will clarify
that iputils can't provide normal IPv4 traceroute.
Also, mark USE=traceroute6 as deprecated (in metadata.xml). See Link 1.
Please use net-analyzer/traceroute for traceroute and traceroute6.
