It's in bugzilla, I mailed Arjan privately and pointed out the need to
do that.

No idea (as the deprecation comment says, it's unclear what layout
freeze/thaw even are supposed to do).

I would guess that GnomeCanvas internals need rethinking, since all
the flicker-avoidance and scrolling stuff now happens automatically. I
don't know if this has been done or not. I don't know if it matters
for this change...
