Per discussion in ocaml-community/meta#46
I'm planning to do a release with pqwy#58 after that.

I don't think we need to rename the module names as notty comes rarely low in the dependency tree and thus conflicts with other libraries that would use the original version of notty seems unlikely.

cc @MisterDA (you're not watching this repository apparently)
cc @dinosaure @shonfeder @Alizter (from ocaml-community/meta#46 you seem interested in maintenance)

Thanks for you work, @kit-ty-kate do you have the right on this repository? If so, I'm ok with this PR (but you should take into account #6 which seems required for dune). If not and if @MisterDA does not have the time to do, I can take the relay.

I wish I had the time... I don't have an immediate use for notty anymore, and my plate is so full it reminds me of my grandma's after school snacks. Sorry for not pursuing this and thank you for taking over!

Seems OK to me.

I have also kind of lost my immediate window of availability to do an initial maintenance push here. Thanks for moving this forward, @kit-ty-kate

What's the benefit of removing this?

this is personal preference on account of this feature being devoid of value past the initial generation, duplicating all the informations over two files and making it harder to contribute changes to the opam file.

I guess this needs to be updated? Or are these people still available to maintain this package?
