[issue28971] nntplib is broken when responses are longer than _MAXLINE

[Martin Panter]

Martin Panter added the comment:

Max_over_line.patch is my attempt: Keep the original _MAXLINES = 2048 code, but override it with _MAX_OVER_LINE = 64000 when reading OVER response lines. I also added a test case.
