[issue22351] NNTP constructor exception leaves socket for garbage collector

[Rishi]

Rishi added the comment:

Here is my attempt to fix this issue. This is my first patch ever :).
IMO checking socket leaks in the constructor requires an actual server, so I create an actual localhost dummy server and test some error conditions that are encountered by the constructor.
