[issue17977] urllib.request.urlopen() cadefault argument is documented with wrong default value

[Barry A. Warsaw]

New submission from Barry A. Warsaw:

The docs[1] say:

.. function:: urlopen(url, data=None[, timeout], *, cafile=None, capath=None, 
cadefault=True)

The code[2] says:

def urlopen(url, data=None, timeout=socket._GLOBAL_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT,
*, cafile=None, capath=None, cadefault=False):

Obviously, the code cannot be changed in a stable release, and whether the 
default should be changed for 3.4 is a separate discussion.  For now, the docs 
should be fixed to reflect the code.
