feat(async): add uvicorn, asgi, upgrade django=4.1

[sun337]

Why was this change necessary?

Current version of django(3.2) doesn't support async tasks.

How does it address the problem?

After upgrading to django>4.1 and running asgi server, the application can run tasks asynchronously.

Are there any side effects?

Uvicorn config --limit-concurrency is not yet supported when running with Gunicorn.

Need to test provisioner scripts before merging

and checkout that the nginx settings are in place for uvicorn proxy pass.

@theskumar The provisioner scripts aren't tested yet. Also I'm thinking to update python to 3.11 in the same PR, thoughts?

[CuriousLearner]

The only thing (and the most critical one) needs to be tested with upgraded Python version is that the uwsgi plugin that is compiled through ansible on configuration task works.

I don't think it should have any other impact.

Hey @sun337

When you've time, can you pick this up and test to see if this is working fine?
