[docs] [issue24109] Documentation for difflib uses optparse

[Keith Gray]

New submission from Keith Gray:

The documentation for optparse states it has been deprecated in favor of argparse since 2.7. However, the library documentation for difflib still uses optparse in the example.

https://docs.python.org/2/library/difflib.html#a-command-line-interface-to-difflib

https://docs.python.org/3.5/library/difflib.html#a-command-line-interface-to-difflib

I am willing to update the documentation if there is agreement that it is needed.
