@pissang Please help review this PR.

As @plainheart said, this change is only scoped to the sunburst series, it should be mentioned in the note

I was confused because highlight is new introduced since 5.0 and it should not be deprecated. So I just did some search in the code and it seems the warning log is wrong in https://github.com/apache/echarts/blob/master/src/chart/sunburst/sunburstAction.ts#L90

It should be.

deprecateReplaceLog('sunburstHighlight', 'highlight');

So we should change this warning log instead of changing the doc

It is stated in the V5 upgrade document that this is discarded in the sunrise chart,please check again

旭日图（sunburst）：
动作类型 highlight 已被弃用，请使用 sunburstHighlight 代替。
动作类型 downplay 已被弃用，请使用 sunburstUnhighlight 代替。
选项 series.downplay 已被弃用，请使用 series.blur 代替。
选项 series.highlightPolicy 已不适用，请使用 series.emphasis.focus 代替。

apache/echarts#17587 is following the right track. I think there should be no document changing required so I'm going to close this PR. Thanks for the help!
