​The '.syntax' names are gone. I thought about keeping them as aliases, but
eventually they'll go away and this split already breaks opam dependencies,
so it's simpler to just do the full upgrade right now.

Also, presumably some tools rely on the `.syntax` extension, maybe it is

So far we only did this for syntax extensions with a runtime part. For
instance type_conv doesn't have a .syntax package. Do you know of any tool
that rely on this?
