Restore the previous order of ERC's '/whois' arguments
* etc/NEWS: Remove unneeded entry.
* lisp/erc/erc.el (erc-cmd-WHOIS): Restore the previous order of
arguments sent to the server, so that there's no change in the
function's behavior. Instead, rename the arguments to be more
accurate, and expand upon them in the doc string.
