[issue2628] ftplib Persistent data connection

[Jonathan]

Jonathan <jbell at scrippsweb.com> added the comment:

I've attached two new files. The first swaps the array.array usage for
struct.unpack. The second simply modifies the rst documentation.

I'm not sure how we'd do any tests for FTP without making use of an
actual server. In a quick check of servers, MadGoat (for OpenVMS) was
the only BLOCK-supporting server I found; neither vsftpd nor proftpd
support BLOCK. (I didn't check wuftpd.) Sadly, I've no publicly
accessible servers available to me for others to test against.
