DEPR: Deprecate method argument of reindex_like

[WillAyd]

Feature Type

• Adding new functionality to pandas

• Changing existing functionality in pandas

• Removing existing functionality in pandas

Problem Description

There is a bug report of this in #34547 The current behavior of the method seems to work closer to DataFrame.update (whether intentional or not). Rather than try and fix I think it would be better to remove the parameter and have users call .fillna() or .update() to get the intended result

Hi, I'm wondering what the procedure is to deprecate a keyword argument of a method when there is no new name for it, just removing it. Should I change the code to remove the argument and add a deprecation warning, or should I simply add the deprecation warning?

@WillAyd now that method has been deprecated, do we need to deprecate tolerance as well?

What about deprecating method in reindex() ? and tolerance ?
