Based on talking to a couple of the BioPerl guys, they don't do any mapping of
the db_xref at all.  I see two options:

(a) Continue with the historical mapping in Biopython, and simply remove the
warning.

(b) Remove the mapping, just store the raw NCBI supplied db_xref terminology.

(c) Remove the mapping, except when reading data from the database in order to
retain backwards compatibility with data written using older versions of
Biopython [may not be required; until I fixed it recently the db_xref wasn't
even loaded for SeqFeatures]

I favour option (b) because its simpler and more compatible with the other Bio*
projects.
