Can we replace the usages in our core code for now and remove the method in the next major release? The method is still use in our core code until now, so it is very likely it is also used by third party extensions and these extensions will be broken in the upcoming 6.0 release.

I moved it to the b/c plugin, I didn't restored Factory::$session since it has not been initialized, so it's pretty useless anyway.

I removed the removal of the getSession() method so that no deprecated functions get called anymore. The removal can and should be done in 7.0. If the tests are green it can be merged.
