Summary: NNTPLib supports saving BODY to a file

Initial Comment:
I modified nntplib so the body method can accept an 
optional second parameter pointing to a filehandle or 
filename (string).  This way, really long body 
articles can be stored to disk instead of kept in 
memory.  The way I made the modification should make 
it easy to extend this functionality to other extended 
return methods.

Thanks.  The patch is missing two things before it can be
accepted: change to docstrings explaining the new argument,
and changes to the documentation (Doc/lib/libnntplib.tex).
If you don't know LaTeX, just imitate what you see there and
our LaTeX expert will fix it up -- however you have to write
the documentation yourself.
