- rename Lisp to LispSyntax

[swadey]

No description provided.

[kmsquire]

Unfortunately, deleting Lisp.jl will currently cause problems for anyone who has installed it, so we can't do that.

(This needs to be documented somewhere.)

[kmsquire]

(Closed so this isn't accidentally merged.)

[kmsquire]

See, e.g., JuliaStats/Distance.jl#25, for how to do this.

See also, https://groups.google.com/d/msg/julia-users/NHeaVWMfRfo/G4C31JzWN0kJ, for a discussion of some problems when Stats was renamed to StatsBase.

(Of course, Lisp.jl won't have been installed by many people, and probably isn't depended on by any packages, so many of those issues might not be relevant.)

Also relevant:

• Clarification/Documentation of policy for deprecating packages #347 (comment)
• suggest Pkg.unregister(), Pkg.unmaintain() PkgDev.jl#21

yeah, this was in response to jeff's request (here: #4367). I figured it would be better to rename now rather than waiting until people install it.
