[New-bugs-announce] [issue36003] set better defaults for TCPServer options

[Giampaolo Rodola']

New submission from Giampaolo Rodola' <g.rodola at gmail.com>:

socketserver.TCPServer provides the following defaults:

allow_reuse_address = False
request_queue_size = 5

Proposal is to:
* have "allow_reuse_address = True" on POSIX in order to immediately reuse previous sockets which were bound on the same address and remained in TIME_WAIT state
* have "request_queue_size = None" so that it's up to socket.listen() to choose a default reasonable value (usually 128)
