gnutls on by default

gnutls on by default

[Lars Magne Ingebrigtsen]

I think it's time to switch gnutls on by default in network-stream.el
(for Emacsen that has support compiled in, that is).  It seems to work
fine for people who are using it, but we won't get a thorough testing
until more people are exposed to it.

So unless anybody objects, I'm going to commit that tomorrow.

Please also check that the support is available, not just compiled
in.  The necessary dynamic libraries and the gnutls executable may not
be available, even if the support is compiled in.

Yes, I'll be using Juanma's `gnutls-available-p' function, which should
do the right thing.

OK, I suppose open-network-stream is not called until it is needed, so
please dismiss my previous message.

How is that possible without unnecessarily loading libgnutls-26.dll?

As a last resort, I suppose we could add a
`dynamic-library-available-p' whose Windows implementation would load
and unload the library.

I've now done this.
