New submission from Brian Curtin <br...@python.org>:

Since 1993, aifc.openfp has simply pointed to aifc.open as a matter of 
backwards compatibility. See 
https://github.com/python/cpython/commit/7bc817d5ba917528e8bd07ec461c635291e7b06a
 for the exact change.

aifc.openfp is both undocumented and untested, and in looking at doc coverage I 
decided it's better to deprecate it since it's silently been there for 25 years.
