[docs] Documentation error in function getaddrinfo in socket module

[Krishna Kumar Thakur]

 Hi,

python version : 3.3.0

Description : getaddrinfo() function expecting 'type' as the keyword argument but
the function documentation says 'socktype' . 

please see the below output
>>> help(getaddrinfo)
Help on built-in function getaddrinfo in module _socket:

getaddrinfo(...)
    getaddrinfo(host, port [, family, socktype, proto, flags])
        -> list of (family, socktype, proto, canonname, sockaddr)
    
>>> getaddrinfo.__doc__
'getaddrinfo(host, port [, family, socktype, proto, flags])\n    -> list of (family, socktype, proto, canonname, sockaddr)\n\nResolve host and port into addrinfo struct.'

so if the function is called 
>>> i = getaddrinfo('www.python.org','http',socktype = SOCK_STREAM)
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<pyshell#20>", line 1, in <module>
    i = getaddrinfo('www.python.org','http',socktype = SOCK_STREAM)
TypeError: 'socktype' is an invalid keyword argument for this function

then I have found the correct keyword argument as 'type' in python 3.3 official documentation.
Its not the major issue but sometimes it confuses.

As I appreciate python, so I felt its my duty to help make this language error free
as much as possible. :)
