Unofficial RFC931 patches to nntp

[repost: Moved the auth data after the word "connect" so the nntp_awk
report generator will still work without modification]
This patch will make nntpd log the results of an RFC931 style user
authentication attempt for each incoming connection. If authentication
is not possible, it is logged as "[unauthenticated]". No access
restriction/denial based on the results is implemented, it's simply
logged.
