recent 2.13.x change broke compiler bridge in scala-dist-smoketest

[SethTisue]

at e.g. https://travis-ci.org/scala/scala-dist-smoketest/builds/483980520 we see

/tmp/sbt_c8e64c05/xsbt/ExtractAPI.scala:334: error: value isLocal is not a member of ExtractAPI.this.global.Symbol
      !(s.isPrivate && (s.privateWithin == NoSymbol || s.isLocal))
                                                         ^
one error found

looks like the relevant commit is scala/scala@5b8f928, /cc @joroKr21

[SethTisue]

about whether the community build catches this, scala/community-build#842

[joroKr21]

Should we bring this method back?

[SethTisue]

yes please, I think we have to. with an appropriate comment or deprecation message. there are others scattered around the code, @deprecated("shim for sbt's compiler interface", since = "2.12.0") and so on

[joroKr21]

@deprecated("shim for sbt's compiler interface", since = "2.12.0")

Hmm, I'm not sure if this should be part of the deprecation message or just a comment in the code.

keeping open until I've seen scala-dist-smoketest green
