Introduce asyncio

[stefanoborini]

Currently the event loop is very naive and not portable. I think it's good to use vaitk as a base for experimenting with asyncio

[FelipeLema]

You want to rewrite inners of vaitk? If so, then this issue should belong there.

I'm up for helping with code in this, but I'm lost whether I should code here or at vaitk repo

[stefanoborini]

@FelipeLema hi. well, you are certainly right. It should go in vaitk, but of course when you involve async, it will propagate up to vai.

I think that if I am no longer alone in the development, I can certainly restart the development of other outstanding issues.

Tonight I'll reorganise the issues. It's been a while...

[FelipeLema]

be aware that there is also prompt-toolkit which can be used in a pure python environment (eg PyPy)

[stefanoborini]

@FelipeLema If you want to use prompt-toolkit, it's probably better if you work on pyvim instead.
