socket.AF_PACKET doc: proto is *not* in network byte order

Documentation

The documentation of socket.AF_PACKET says that the value of proto in the address representation must be in network-byte-order:

https://github.com/python/cpython/blame/v3.12.0a3/Doc/library/socket.rst#L196

Value must be in network-byte-order.

This is incorrect. It is true that the corresponding Linux field sll_protocol is in network byte order (see packet(7)), but Python automatically converts to/from host byte order:

https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/v3.12.0a3/Modules/socketmodule.c#L1483

https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/v3.12.0a3/Modules/socketmodule.c#L2104

Note: This applies to addresses passed to socket.bind() and returned from socket.recvfrom(), but does not apply to the proto parameter of socket.socket() -- Python doesn't automatically convert it, so the user must supply a value in network byte order (when using AF_PACKET). It might be a good idea to document this, e.g. the documentation of ETH_P_ALL could mention that it needs to be converted using socket.htons() before passing to socket.socket().

Bonus typo:

https://github.com/python/cpython/blame/v3.12.0a3/Doc/library/socket.rst#L188

The packets are represented by the tuple

"packets" is inaccurate and should be changed to "addresses" or "sockets".

Abra Doc/library/socket.rst na representação de endereços AF_PACKET e revise os locais citados em Modules/socketmodule.c quanto ao comportamento da ordem dos bytes. Atualize a documentação para distinguir os endereços de bind/recvfrom do parâmetro proto de socket() e corrija a redação de “packets”; está concluído quando as conversões e a terminologia documentadas corresponderem à implementação.
