The function is useful if you want to run the "main process" under
`asyncio`. Until `trio` core wraps this better we'll keep our own copy
in the interim (there's a new "inside-out-guest" mode almost on
mainline so hang tight).
This should mostly maintain top level SC principles for any task spawned
using `tractor.to_asyncio.run()`. When the `asyncio` task completes make
sure to cancel the pertaining `trio` cancel scope and raise any error
that may have resulted.
Resolves#120
This is an initial solution for #120.
Allow spawning `asyncio` based actors which run `trio` in guest
mode. This enables spawning `tractor` actors on top of the `asyncio`
event loop whilst still leveraging the SC focused internal actor
supervision machinery. Add a `tractor.to_syncio.run()` api to allow
spawning tasks on the `asyncio` loop from an embedded (remote) `trio`
task and return or stream results all the way back through the `tractor`
IPC system using a very similar api to portals.
One outstanding problem is getting SC around calls to
`asyncio.create_task()`. Currently a task that crashes isn't able to
easily relay the error to the embedded `trio` task without us fully
enforcing the portals based message protocol (which seems superfluous
given the error ref is in process). Further experiments using `anyio`
task groups may alleviate this.
