[issue42774] 'ipaddress' module, bad result for 'is_private' on "192.0.0.0"

Eric V. Smith added the comment: The ipaddress documentation references https://www.iana.org/assignments/iana-ipv4-special-registry/iana-ipv4-special-registry.xhtml, which says that 192.0.0.0/29 is reserved and not globally reachable. I think in that sense, it's a private address.

New submission from Trevor Marvin : Tested on Python 3.6.9 with "ipaddress" module, module version 1.0. ipaddress.ip_address('192.0.0.0').is_private Incorrectly returns as 'True'. Per RFC 1918 / BCP 5, section 3, the private IPv4 space sarting with '192' is only '192.168.0.0/16'.
