newswww: add /$MESSAGE_ID global redirector endpoint

This is the fallback for the normal WWW endpoint.

Adding this to the top-level seems to be alright, since lynx and
w3m both understand nntp://<HOSTNAME>/<Message-ID> anyways.

If newsgroup and inbox names conflict, then consider it the
fault of the original sender.

Since NewsWWW is intended to support buggy linkifiers in mail clients,
they can interpret nntp:// URLs as http://<HOSTNAME>/<Message-ID>

Inbox ordering from the config file is preserved since
commit cfa8ff7c256e20f3240aed5f98d155c019788e3b
("config: each_inbox iteration preserves config order"),
so admins can rely on that to configure how scanning
works.
