Description
Before 1.0 you could use the "event_loop" fixture for custom set up and tear down instructions on the event loop.
With removal of the fixture in 1.0.0 there seems to be no way to access the event_loop before it is running and after it has stopped.
Example use cases:
- define exception handler to fail test if exception occurs
- clean up pending tasks after test has run

Research direction
Start by reviewing the removal of the event_loop fixture and the available event-loop lifecycle entry points. Done means users can perform custom setup before the event loop runs and cleanup after it stops, including exception-handler setup and pending-task cleanup.
