[issue29054] pty.py: pty.spawn hangs after client disconnect over nc (netcat)

Thank you Martin very much. To resolve this issue, I decided to document the current behavior and add test cases for it. No change in behavior is introduced. This hopefully allows to close this issue. The test cases for the current behavior ensure that we can (at some point in the future) add some different behavior without breaking backwards compatibility.

Fixed: Observed behavior is now expected+documented behavior. Improved test cases.

Happy Holidays!
