I noticed that the termios.c module is largely untested.

There is some coverage via test_pty, test_ioctl and test_getpass, but there is nothing to cover regression and the behaviours in the module functions.

Tests are required for:

• termios.tcgetattr()
• termios.tcsetattr()
• termios.tcsendbreak()
• termios.tcdrain()
• termios.tcflush()
• termios.tcflow()

This could be a good issue for the PyCon sprints, otherwise I'm happy to implement it
