[New-bugs-announce] [issue11177] Set asyncore create_socket default argument

[Giampaolo Rodola']

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

At the current state asyncore implicitly supports TCP (SOCK_STREAM) sockets only, despite UDP support might be added in the future.
For simplicity, create_socket() should assume TCP/IP by default.
This would avoid the user to "import socket" and specify the two constants every time, which is annoying.
