Change #1309156 had a related patch set uploaded (by Dreamy Jazz; author: Dreamy Jazz):

[mediawiki/core@master] Drop unused hard-deprecated ChangeTags methods

Leaving ChangeTags::addTag as it's still used by MediaWiki-extensions-StaffEdits. However, we don't need it removed for the parent T386456: Feature: Allow for private, rights-restricted tags so closing this task and will file a task for MediaWiki-extensions-StaffEdits
