Summary: asyncore loop_once and remove poll2

Initial Comment:
this patch does two things to asyncore.py, none of them should break any existing code which uses the module:

1) remove the (broken) poll2 function, and rather make a reference from poll2 to poll3 in the module namespace (i.e. if someone actually uses the poll2 function, poll3 will be called instead).

2) add a function loop_once which performs the asyncore loop once instead of until the socket map is empty.  asyncore.loop_once has the same function signature as asyncore.loop.

Can you please explain in what way poll2 is broken?

Also, what happens if use_poll is set, but there is no poll 
available on the system?
