Summary: telnetlib.read_until: float req'd for timeout

Initial Comment:
The read_until (and I assume expect) method(s) have an
optional timeout parameter; a float is required but
this is not documented; use of an integer causes an
exception.  

Documentation needs to mention the need for a float
value (alternatively, telnetlib should convert to a float).
