Rosbagmigration can be used to transform one message into another, but
only if the original message no longer exists.

The effective design decision that was made was to only allow for
convergence of messages such that there is never an ambiguity as to
what to do with a message when it is found in a bag.

rosbagmigration in ROS 1.3 is moving to rosbag/migration.
Rosbagmigration will continue to work in 1.3 but be deprecated.  The
only change that should need to be made to remove the deprecation
warning at that point is in the exports line.
