Description

The HTML renderers in package org.apache.ofbiz.widget.renderer.html do not appear to be used.  While refactoring other parts of the widget system we have to make corresponding changes to the HTML renderers, but don't have any test cases to prove the HTML renderers continue to function correctly.

OFBIZ-6281 suggests that HtmlScreenRenderer was deprecated some time ago and has since been removed from ofbiz sources.

Mark the remaining HTML renderers as deprecated since they should have been superseded by the Macro renderers.

Assuming the HTML renderer classes are deprecated in the next release they can be removed in the following release.
