[issue20271] urllib.parse.urlparse() accepts wrong URLs

Why shouldn't splitport() handle auth? Are you suggesting that in the eyes of splitport() that "user:password at host:port" should be invalid?

>>> parse.splitport('user:password at host:80')
('user:password at host', '80')

Seems to be reasonable behaviour to me. Why add the artificial constraint of calling splituser() first?
