* doc/misc/gnus.texi (The problem of spam): Don't explain what
spam is; there is no need for that in 2022. Don't explain

(FAQ 7-2): Delete references to ancient versions of Gnus.
(FAQ 6-3): Delete reference to obsolete library nnir.el.

This simplifies usage of 'eshell-close-handles' in several places and
makes it work more like the docstring indicated it would.
* lisp/eshell/esh-io.el (eshell-close-handles): Only store EXIT-CODE
and RESULT if they're non-nil. Also, use 'dotimes' and 'dolist' to
