Document the differences between tuareg and caml-mode about tuareg HOT 5 OPEN

I don't use caml-mode so cannot really compare. (IMHO, the two should be merged — I cannot do it due to lack of time.)

@monnier Are you familiar with the differences?

Yeah, I think that'd be prudent. I'm still a bit confused by the dependency that tuareg has on caml-mode, as it seems it uses very little things from it. Perhaps the easiest path forward would be to deprecated caml-mode and start inlining whatever's needed in Tuareg.

caml-mode (available in NonGNU ELPA and MELPA) is used to display types (using the obsolete *.annot files), open a module for documentation,...

I'm guessing we can probably remove this usage of caml-types now that pretty much everyone's using Merlin or OCaml-LSP.

That's certainly something to discuss (I tend to be somewhat conservative for the users 😁). We would also just copy the file.

Yeah, I guess copying caml-types.el would be a relatively simple thing to do, as at a glance the file is self-contained.
