Are there special warning when you use obsolete things? `make-obsolete'
is on a finer level, but it's safe to assume that if something is in an
obsolete/ directory then everything inside should be obsoleted as well.

Gnus itself needs imap.el only in one place (mail-source.el) so I
propose we move imap.el to Emacs and out of Gnus when and if that
dependency is removed. It's a general-purpose library anyway.
