[issue9679] unicode DNS names in urllib, urlopen

[Demian Brecht]

Demian Brecht added the comment:

Here's a simple patch that adds functionality matching that in http.client to urllib.request. As pointed out by John, I see no reason why urllib and http.client shouldn't have consistent handling if IDNs independent of IRIs (although IRI encoding would be a nice addition as well).
