runpod/flash#387 and runpod/flash#388 set a hard deprecation date for runpod-flash: October 29, 2026. After that date the package gets no fixes or updates. The CLI and SDK now print a notice that links to /sdk/migrate-from-flash. The migration guide from #874 currently says "You don't need to migrate today" and gives no date. This PR adds the date and explains the notice:

  • sdk/migrate-from-flash.mdx: adds the October 29, 2026 date to the opening note and to "Do you need to migrate?". Rewrites the timeline section, now "Flash deprecation timeline", using the wording from the runpod/flash README. Adds a "Deprecation notice" subsection covering the CLI notice on stderr, the FutureWarning on import, why deployed workers don't show it, and how to silence it with RUNPOD_FLASH_SILENCE_DEPRECATION=1. Keeps the DOCS-504 TODO for the repository archive date, which is still unannounced.
  • release-notes.mdx: adds the bold retirement date to the Flash deprecation entry, following the release notes format.
  • flash/troubleshooting.mdx: adds a "Deprecation notice" entry with the exact message and how to silence it.
  • The Flash page banners added in Add SDK Configure resources and Build apps pages, update CLI and 2.0 notes #874 now give the cutoff date in place of "keeps working but no longer gets new features".

The notice first shipped in runpod-flash 1.21.0 (runpod/flash#386, published to PyPI October 15, 2026), so the guide names 1.21.0 as the first version that prints it.
