Declare Vload_file_rep_suffixes instead of

deleted variable default_suffixes.
(Fget_load_suffixes): New function.
(Fload): Use Fget_load_suffixes and Vload_file_rep_suffixes.
No longer use deleted variable default_suffixes.  Update docstring.
(syms_of_lread): defsubr Sget_load_suffixes.
Expand `load-suffixes' docstring.
Delete default_suffixes and DEFVAR_LISP the new variable
`load-file-rep-suffixes'.

+If this function fails to find a file, it may look for different

+It does so by adding the non-empty suffixes in `load-file-rep-suffixes'
+to the file name.  Emacs uses this feature mainly to find compressed
+versions of files when Auto Compression mode is enabled.

+The exact suffixes that this function tries out, in the exact order,

+MUST-SUFFIX are nil, this function first tries out the latter suffixes
+and then the former.
 
 Loading a file records its definitions, and its `provide' and
 `require' calls, in an element of `load-history' whose
 car is the file name loaded.  See `load-history'.
