No need to define gnus-default-nntp-server in paths.el

Don't see a need for this to be autoloaded, since it is only used in
gnus.el (in one place, as a fallback).  Maybe it should be obsolete?

* paths.el (gnus-default-nntp-server): Remove (gnus.el defines it).

* gnus/gnus.el (gnus-default-nntp-server): Make it a defcustom.
Merge in doc from paths.el version.

* mail/rmail.el (rmail-file-name, rmail-spool-directory): ... to here.
Make the latter a defcustom, with a delayed initialization.
