An alternative to spambayes.el for those using Gnus

Hi,

I've been running my own interface code between Gnus and Spambayes for a
while, and improved it a bit today to the point that I think it should
be ready for public consumption.

It can do the same things as spambayes.el, but in a way that should be
cleaner and slightly faster (using `call-process-region' instead of
`shell-command-on-region', for instance). It also provides a few more
things, most notably:

  - a command for (re-)running the classifier on an article (or
    process-marked articles). Useful when you've recently trained
    Spambayes and want to see how the newly-trained filter
    performs---and maybe even respool some articles with this new
    filter.

  - a command to examine what the Spambayes filter thinks of an article
    (read-only operation): whether it is classified as ham or spam, the
    overall spam score as well as the various spam clues with their
    respective scores (from the 'X-Spambayes-Evidence' header).

This has been tested with GNU Emacs 21.4, Spambayes 1.0.3 and No Gnus
v0.6 (also with Gnus v5.10.7).

It works well for me, and I hope others will find it useful.
