As @kukimik mentioned in #137 , we have implemented four exercises that were actually deprecated: binary, octal, hexadecimal (all replaced by all-your-base), and accumulate (replaced by list-ops).

When an exercise is deprecated, there is a .deprecated file in its .problem-specifications folder, for example .problem-specifications/exercises/hexadecimal/.deprecated. I didn't know that.

An exercise should never be deleted, instead it must be deprecated by setting its status key to "deprecated" in config.json (this is what this PR does), and possibly setting other fields to [] too (see the docs for more details).
