Drop-in support for legacy telnetlib #139

Description

@tucked

Hey there, I have a module which depends on a (private) library which does import telnetlib, and I'm trying to test it on Python 3.13+.
I saw that telnetlib3 has a copy of the removed standard library, and I was hoping pip install telnetlib3 would satisfy these existing import telnetlibs. That doesn't appear to be the case, though... I was able to create a local telnetlib.py that just did from telnetlib3.telnetlib import *, and it seems to be working. Would this project consider adding such a shim or, perhaps simpler, moving telnetlib.py to be a sibling of the telnetlib3 package to enable drop-in support? TIA
