[issue7351] Rename BadZipfile to BadZipFile for consistency

Stephen Hansen <me+python at ixokai.io> added the comment:

You may "not care" about backwards compatibility, but introducing a breaking change in 3.2 for mere style-conformity is not OK, IMO. If the patcher insists on it being a breaking change, it should be rejected.

FWIW, this casing is sufficiently bizarre and inconsistent in the module itself, that it seems clearly wrong and likely to produce difficulties for people using it-- so although I'm not upgrading to Python3 anytime soon, I'd really like to change my code to be BadZipFile when I do, so I'd be +1 with an alias. :)
