[issue1339] smtplib starttls() should ehlo() if it needs to

[Bill Fenner]

Bill Fenner added the comment:

I've attached a patch against 2.4.3.

The patch does the following:
- Factor out the duplication of EHLO/HELO in login() and sendmail() to a 
new function, ehlo_or_helo_if_needed().
- Use ehlo_or_helo_if_needed() in starttls()
- Check for the starttls exception in starttls() in the same way as 
login() checks for the auth extension.
