Improve movemail default
* lisp/gnus/mail-source.el (mail-source-movemail-program):
Change default to "movemail".
(mail-source-movemail): Pass just mail-source-movemail-program to
call-process instead of fully specifying it relative to
exec-directory. Ensures that we will find Mailutils movemail if
it is installed. (Bug#31737)
