whois: remove obsolete handle support

Contact handles have been obsolete for some time now.  The "!handle"
InterNic syntax no longer works and core COCO handle queries seems
to only return empty records.  OK sthen@ job@

whois: trim output after ">>> Last update of WHOIS database:"
Currently, whois(1) displays the full output it receives from the
server.  With this change, any text after a line starting with ">>>
Last update of WHOIS database:" is dropped.  This trims a lot of
useless text that would otherwise cause the data you care about to
scroll off the screen.  From FreeBSD.  OK deraadt@

whois: use whois.internic.net for -i option
Revert revision 1.22 which changed -i to use whois.networksolutions.com.
Network Solutions no longer runs InterNic so we must use
whois.internic.net for looking up nameserver or registrar records.

If looking up a string which looks like a gTLD, doesn't match a known set of
existing ones not using the new standard hostnames, and whois.nic.TLD exists,
head straight there for lookups rather than using whois-servers.net (who have
been a bit variable in their speed of picking up new zones). Bug spotted by
giovanni@ and jasper@, ok giovanni@

Use .Lk for HTTP hyperlinks, not .Pa.
Most of the patch from Arto Jonsson <ajonsson at kapsi dot fi>.
jmc@ agrees in principle that .Lk is the right macro to use.

While here, update a few broken links,
and add missing markup at a few places.

o Make -q option the default
o When invoked with no arguments and the record contains 'Whois Server: foo'
  also do the lookup using foo as the whois server.
o If an entry BAR is not found (No match for "BAR"), fall back on
  whois.internic.net.  This makes internic handle lookups work again.
o Fix lookup of multiple entries
o Add -Q (quick) option to turn off double lookup
Note:
Double lookups will not work properly until {com,net,org}.whois-servers.net
has been changed to point to whois.crsnic.net (in progress).
Man page still needs a bit of work.
