Since FreeBSD has never had a stock NNTP server, move the nntp line
down to the section of optional mail/news services. Change the nntpd
location to /usr/local/libexec since it's an optional software.
Henceforth, nntpd will be advised to run as "news", which is a
standard user in the system, instead of "usenet", which has never
existed in the default master.passwd(5).
Note: It's not "news:news" since inetd(8) runs a service at the
specified user's login group by default.
Add a blank comment line above the uucpd line so the section looks uniform.
