  strip phase name is not great

Bug description:
  The "strip" phase name is not great. It's not actually stripping..
  it's the phase that copies the content into the snap directory, as I
  understand it. So it's the opposite of stripping (although I
  understand where the motivation comes from). See how this command
  makes little sense, for example:

      snapcraft clean --step=strip

  So it might be better named as something like "cast", or "shape", or
  "form". I'd check with Mark for the best word here.

  [Impact]

   * One of the snapcraft commands is confusing.

   * The change is backwards compatible, so anything that's relying on
  strip will still work.

  [Test Case]

   * Run snapcraft strip
   * Check that you get a deprecation message.
   * Clean
   * Run snapcraft prime
   * Check that the results are the same, without deprecation message.

  [Regression Potential]

   * This could affect the strip command.
