Document 'message-send-mail-function' in the Emacs manual

Most of the manual here addresses Message mode, yet talks about
'send-mail-function' which is used for Mail mode.
Fixing this completely requires more involved work, but for now at
least document the difference here.

* doc/emacs/sending.texi (Mail Sending): Mention
'message-send-mail-function'.  (Bug#39639)
