[issue24739] allow argparse.FileType to accept newline argument

[Berker Peksag]

Berker Peksag added the comment:

I agree with paul j3. It would be nice to keep the current FileType API as is. The argparse documentation already encourages people to write their own custom types and I think this is a good use case for following the advice.

Thanks for the report!
