[issue2186] map and filter shouldn't support None as first argument (in Py3k only)

[Raymond Hettinger]

Okay, thanks.  Though, I should have also mentioned symmetries with
sorted(), min(), and max() which all take the iterable first and follow
with an optional key function.

Closing this one. The map(None, *args) feature was removed for 3.0. 
Have decided to leave None in ifilter() and ifilterfalse() since None is
the preferred way to spell a default argument and having to pass "bool"
feels awkward and clunky. Switching the argument order was shot down, so
will just leave it as-is.

Marked resolution as "accepted" since the map(None) suggestion went in.

resolution:  -> accepted
