Subject: [PATCH] refactor: deprecate constants matching `_NUM`

These symbols, alongside those matching the `_MAX`, `_COUNT` and
`_LAST`-suffixed constants, have been deprecated in favor of keeping
more stable SemVer guarantees.

For more on the reasons why some of these constants were deprecated,
while others weren't, see the accompanying PR.
