[issue18610] wsgiref.validate expects wsgi.input read to give exactly one arg

[PJ Eby]

PJ Eby added the comment:

This is a misreading of the spec.  The read() method is defined as taking exactly one parameter.  The server *should* support it being optional, but the app invoking it without an argument is not compliant, and wsgiref.validate is validating that the *app* performs according to spec, not the server.

Therefore, the documentation is what's in error, not the code.
