[NNTP] Misc changes

[Clive D.W. Feather]

A couple of weeks ago we were discussing a number of changes, particularly
to capabilities but possibly also to other things. I don't think I made any
changes to the draft because I didn't think any of them had converged.

So can anyone (Russ?) remember what they were and where they got to? My
memory lists the following, but I don't claim it's complete:

(1) Placeholder for capability information in responses. I think we settled
that this can be an extension requested by the client - the only thing this
loses is the ability to put capability information in the initial greeting.

(2) Make POST a separate capability. I think this was agreed.

(3) Make LISTGROUP a separate capability. I remember being against this.

(4) A range facility for LISTGROUP. From memory there was significant
disagreement as to the semantics.
