asyncio: Add guest mode for running asyncio inside external event loops

Feature request

Add guest mode to asyncio, enabling it to run cooperatively inside a host event loop such as Tkinter, Qt, GTK, or any other framework that owns the main thread.

Motivation

GUI toolkits (Tk, Qt, GTK, pygame, ...) each have their own event loop that must run on the main thread. Today there is no standard way to use asyncio coroutines inside a GUI application without:

• Polling hacks (periodic root.after() calls)
• Replacing the event loop entirely (fragile, framework-specific)
• Running asyncio in a separate thread and manually marshalling results

Trio solved this problem with trio.lowlevel.start_guest_run() and the approach has proven robust across many GUI frameworks (see trio-guest).

Proposed API

import asyncio

task = asyncio.start_guest_run(
    async_fn, *args,
    run_sync_soon_threadsafe=host.schedule_callback,
    done_callback=host.on_done,
)

The implementation decomposes BaseEventLoop._run_once() into three new public methods — poll_events(), process_events(), and process_ready() — then uses a dual-thread architecture where the host thread processes callbacks and a daemon I/O thread polls for events.

Prior art and discussion

• Trio guest mode
• trio-guest — multi-framework reference implementation
• asyncio-guest — proof-of-concept for asyncio (this proposal is derived from it)
• discuss.python.org: Connecting asyncio and tkinter event loops

A reference implementation with tests (12 tests passing, full asyncio test suite regression-free) is ready to submit as a PR.

Comienza con BaseEventLoop._run_once(), la API pública propuesta y las 12 pruebas de la implementación de referencia. Revisa el PR vinculado gh-145343 y los antecedentes citados sobre el modo invitado; se considerará terminado cuando el modo invitado propuesto funcione de forma cooperativa con los bucles de eventos del host y supere sus pruebas sin regresiones en la suite de asyncio.
