Description

Nobody's currently responsible for Pig code. As a result, there is nobody to fix the issues, or even fix the failing tests (of which we unfortunately have plenty). Those tests take time to run, constantly hang, and fail with cryptic errors that we don't know how to fix and don't have enough resources to investigate.

Thus I propose we deprecate Pig support in 2.2 and remove it in 3.0.
