The patch:
1) Increases _MAXLINE to 4096.
2) Reverts issue 16040 and that is not correct, please ignore that part.

The changes made in issue 16040 limit the amount of data read by readline() and 
does not close the nntp session when the server sends a message whose size is 
greater than this limit. In that case, should not nntplib close the session as 
the session has become unusable as shown by the test_nntplib results in 
test_nntplib.log?
