nnmaildir stores NOV data in such a way that it's easy to get just the
information for particular articles, so it can put the information for
just the requested articles in the buffer. Maybe nnml could do that
too.
Even better: change the backend interface so the backend can return
the same data structures that Gnus ends up using, instead of making
all backends pretend to be NNTP. Mail backends could store "prin1"
output, and use "read" to parse it. nntp is the only backend that
should ever need to parse a NOV buffer.
