- Providing doc fragment for `ack_named_deprecations`.

* Improvement on Named Deprecations
Per the comments in PR, we want to expose a call to a ``deprecate`` method on the module code, so that pylint can properly perform its static analysis on deprecations.
This prompted a revamp of the named deprecation feature.
* Use .get() instead of [] for the param to ack named deprecations.
* Changes from suggestions in the PR
* removed named deprecations
* Update changelogs/fragments/1480-module-helper-improvements.yml
