I made DejaNews a customization option.

I think the docstring ought to be improved, I couldn't figure out how
it works.  For example, it isn't used in nnml buffer as far as I can
see. 

It should probably be a list, so you could tell it first to try the
default method, then some other nntp server, and then dejanews.  It
feel weird contacting dejanews just to get the parent in a local nntp
group.  The default behaviour could be first to try the default
method, and then DejaNews.

	* gnus.el (gnus-select-method): Added default value and tag.
	(gnus-refer-article-method): Added `DejaNews' customization option.
