[NNTP] Language for extensions and capabilities

[Ken Murchison]

Now that we've moved from LIST EXTENSIONS to [LIST ] CAPABILITIES, how 
should the documents refer to the tokens advertised by CAPABILITIES? 
Currently, we call them "extension label" in the text (or at least I do) 
and the ABNF calls them "extension-descriptor".  Should we continue to 
use one of these, or should we just refer to them as "capability"?  I'm 
reworking the AUTHINFO draft to use a separate capability to list the 
SASL mechanisms, and now I'm in a situation where I have the "AUTHINFO 
extension label" and the "SASL capability".

I'd like to standarize some way of referring to these tokens.  Thoughts?
