DEPR: deprecate Index.to_native_types() ?

[jorisvandenbossche]

We currently have a public Index.to_native_types() method (https://dev.pandas.io/docs/reference/api/pandas.Index.to_native_types.html) that somehow formats the values of the index.

Example:

In [3]: pd.date_range("2012", periods=3).to_native_types() 
Out[3]: array(['2012-01-01', '2012-01-02', '2012-01-03'], dtype=object)

I don't think this needs to be in the public API?
