Subject: [PATCH] Make 'advice-remove' interactive

`ad-advice-remove' is already interactive, but it doesn't work with
new-style advice.

* lisp/emacs-lisp/nadvice.el (advice-remove): Make it interactive.
* doc/lispref/functions.texi (Advising Named Functions): Document that
'advice-remove' is now an interactive command.
