Introduced in version: 
10.2.0
Description: 

If a template becomes outdated, there's now a way to mark it as deprecated. This can be done by using a new deprecated key which can be used in the hook_theme implementations returned by hook_theme(). The value contains a deprecation message that serves as a notification to site builders and developers about the deprecation of a specific template.

/**
  * Implements hook_theme().
  */
function mymodule_theme() {
  return [
    'mymodule_custom_template' => [
      'variables' => ['content' => NULL],
      'deprecated' => 'The "mymodule_custom_template" template is deprecated in drupal:X.0.0 and is removed from drupal:Y.0.0. Use another template instead. See https://www.example.com',
    ],
  ];
