This ticket is related to the first part of this
[proposal](https://forum.djangoproject.com/t/proposal-rename-runserver-
command-to-devserver-and-add-a-prodserver-management-command/28030)

I would suggest the following steps:

1. rename `runserver` to `devserver`
2. recreate `runserver` that has the `devserver` class as a base class and
add the standard deprecation warning (example in this
[PR](https://github.com/nanorepublica/django-prodserver/pull/17/files))
3. Update the documentation, which should be a search & replace.


Note: I will raise the second part as a separate ticket since each has
pros/cons and could be accepted/rejected independently.

Comment:

Closing as "wontfix" per discussion on the forum. We have to reach a
strong consensus on the forum to change such a long-standing API.
