Merge chagnes made in Gnus trunk.
auth.texi (GnuPG and EasyPG Assistant Configuration): Mention the default now is to have two files in `auth-sources'. nnimap.el (nnimap-open-connection-1): Delete duplicate server names when getting credentials. gnus-util.el (gnus-delete-duplicates): New function. nnimap.el (nnimap-credentials): Instead of picking the first port as a creation default, pass the whole port list down. It will be completed. auth-source.el (auth-source-search): Updated docs to talk about multiple creation choices. (auth-source-netrc-create): Accept a list as a value (from the search parameters) and do completion on that list. Keep a separate netrc line with the password obscured for showing the user. nnimap.el (nnimap-open-connection-1): Make the `nnimap-address' the first choice to `auth-source-search' so it will be used for entry creation instead of the server's Gnus-specific name. (nnimap-credentials): Rely on the auth-source library to select which port is actually wanted in the new netrc entry, so don't override `auth-source-creation-defaults'.

If you don't customize @code{auth-sources}, the auth-source library
-reads @code{~/.authinfo.gpg}, which is a GnuPG encrypted file.
+reads @code{~/.authinfo.gpg}, which is a GnuPG encrypted file. Then

In Emacs 23 or later there is an option @code{auto-encryption-mode} to
automatically decrypt @code{*.gpg} files. It is enabled by default.
