master 0dd7e6e3aea: Have gnus-summary-limit-to-age operate on calendar days

[Eric Abrahamsen]

branch: master
commit 0dd7e6e3aeac1ab0a03f2ed2ad108deecde82447
Author: Eric Abrahamsen <eric@ericabrahamsen.net>

    Have gnus-summary-limit-to-age operate on calendar days
    
    Reported and patched by Łukasz Stelmach <stlman@poczta.fm>.
    
    * lisp/gnus/gnus-sum.el (gnus-summary-limit-to-age): Rather than
    24-hour blocks. Also use `read-number', and drop the confusing option
    to reverse younger/older both with the prefix argument and with a
    negative number.
