[issue20572] subprocess.Popen.wait() undocumented "endtime" parameter

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray added the comment:

Indeed, there's no issue number or NEWS entry.  It's not clear from the limited context why this parameter was added.  It doesn't appear to be consistent with the rest of the stdlib: the application can compute timeout from its desired endtime, which is how all of the other stdlib 'wait' APIs work.
