Note that 3.10 & below has slightly different semantics of is_private on networks; see the second commit here.

GH-113171: Fix "private" (non-global) IP address ranges (GH-113179)

The _private_networks variables, used by various is_private implementations,
were missing some ranges and at the same time had overly strict ranges
(where there are more specific ranges considered globally reachable by
the IANA registries).

This patch updates the ranges with what was missing or otherwise incorrect.

100.64.0.0/10 is left alone, for now, as it's been made special in [1].

The _address_exclude_many() call returns 8 networks for IPv4, 121 networks for IPv6.

[1] #61602

(cherry picked from commit 2a4cbf1)

GH-65056: Improve the IP address' is_global/is_private documentation (GH-113186)

It wasn't clear what the semantics of is_global/is_private are and,
when one gets to the bottom of it, it's not quite so simple (hence
the exceptions listed).

(cherry picked from commit 40d75c2)

In 3.10 and below, is_private checks whether the network and broadcast
address are both private.
In later versions (where the test wss backported from), it checks
whether they both are in the same private network.

For 0.0.0.0/0, both 0.0.0.0 and 255.225.255.255 are private,
but one is in 0.0.0.0/8 ("This network") and the other in
255.255.255.255/32 ("Limited broadcast").
That's a lot of semicolons!

Is there a way to track when this will make it into a 3.9.20 release? Thank you!
