Replacing the gf180 module with small wrapper.

 * Add a dependency on `gf180mcu` module and redirect imports of `gf180`
   to that module.
 * Mark the module as deprecated, and people should use the `gf180mcu`
   name.
 * Make the documentation to explain deprecation and redirect to the
   `gf180mcu` version.
