[New-bugs-announce] [issue30989] Sort only when needed in TimedRotatingFileHandler's getFilesToDelete

[Lovesh Harchandani]

New submission from Lovesh Harchandani:

At `/Lib/logging/handlers.py` in `TimedRotatingFileHandler`'s `getFilesToDelete` method, filenames are sorted using `result.sort()` regardless of `len(result)`, if `len(result)` < backupCount, sorting is not required.
