[issue25008] Deprecate smtpd (based on deprecated asyncore/asynchat)

[Barry A. Warsaw]

aiosmtpd is coming along nicely:

http://aiosmtpd.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

We'll soon have a 1.0 release.  Still, I don't think it's worth pulling this into the stdlib.  But we could silently deprecate it and point to aiosmtpd in the docs.
