Research direction

Review the existing python/cpython#17823 pull request and the linked netrc.patch and issue11416.diff files first. Confirm the expected behavior for multiple entries for one host and inspect any tests or documentation changes included there; done means the netrc module handles those entries correctly without regressing existing behavior.
