pinky: disable location canonicalization by default

Behave like who(1) in requiring --lookup to enable this
often slow feature.  pinky(1) is supposed to be lightweight after all.

* doc/coreutils.texi (who invocation): Adjust the description to no
longer reference dialup, and be more general about the still significant
delays.
(pinky invocation): Reference the same --lookup description.
* src/pinky.c (main): Accept --lookup to enable DNS lookups.
* NEWS: Mention the change in behavior.
