[Bug 1973630] [NEW] Deprecate /etc/default/nfs-*

Public bug reported:

Debian is still carrying the old unused /etc/default/nfs-* configuration
files, due to their need to still support SySV systems. In a systemd
system, those files are completely ignored, and generate confusion for
users.

We should either remove them (potentially introducing delta with
debian), or add a remark saying the files are no longer used, or
something like that.
