One of the ideas of WC-NG (which will most likely not be part of 1.7, but
can be added later without really updating our current pristine api) was to
allow compressed and/or (partially) absent pristine storage.
This specific api function requires that the file is available in the
pristine store as uncompressed file or that we store a copy of the file in a
tempfolder (see the documentation update from Julian in r983593).
The deprecation of this api is most likely part of removing this dependency.
