Calvin. - I shall act upon old bug. The tricky nature of backwards

New submission from Calvin Owens:
Urllib encodes as: User-agent
The correct form is: User-Agent
This is quite important, as it makes this library totally unusable for scraping
moronic websites which require a recognized User-Agent string to work
correctly, of which there are many.

2275 hasn't been touched for almost 2 years.
If there was a fix in v3.3, it ought to be backported. But it doesn't look like
they ever came up with one.
