`test_file` failed on Windows with a longer repo path in `test_urllib2`

On Windows, when the CPython repository is cloned to a slightly longer path, for example, C:\Users\xxxxx\Source\cpython — this test case will fail:

ERROR: test_file (test.test_urllib2.HandlerTests.test_file)
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Traceback (most recent call last):

    raise UnicodeEncodeError("idna", label, 0, len(label), "label too long")
UnicodeEncodeError: 'idna' codec can't encode characters in position 0-64: label too long

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

See:
https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/c336f1c3126203fd6c38050df94e9fe8c0d7f2e2/Lib/test/test_urllib2.py#L857-L860

These two URLs will become:

• file://127.0.0.1:80C:\Users\xxxxx\Source\cpython\build\test_python_worker_17208æ/@test_17208_tmpæ
• file://somerandomhost.ontheinternet.comC:\Users\xxxxx\Source\cpython\build\test_python_worker_4676æ/@test_4676_tmpæ

Here, 127.0.0.1:80C:\Users\xxxxx\Source\cpython\build\test_python_worker_17208æ is treated as the domain and passed to socket.gethostbyname. However, the part 1:80C:\Users\xxxxx\Source\cpython\build\test_python_worker_17208æ is too long to be a valid domain label. As a result, the idna codec raises an exception, indicating the label is too long.

A patch is on the way.

Commencez dans Lib/test/test_urllib2.py autour de test_file, en particulier avec la configuration de l’URL vers les lignes 857-860 et l’assertion vers la ligne 872. Exécutez test.test_urllib2.HandlerTests.test_file sous Windows avec un chemin de checkout plus long et comparez l’URL et l’exception obtenues. C’est terminé lorsque le test n’échoue plus dans cet environnement tout en conservant son assertion URLError prévue.
