Make py-libp2p async-library-agnostic with anyio #383

Open ShadowJonathan opened 4 years ago

ShadowJonathan commented 4 years ago

Coming from https://github.com/libp2p/py-libp2p/issues/174#issuecomment-560470465, and based on some conversation with @mhchia, I'm making this issue as a reminder to eventually make the library completely io-agnostic by implimenting it with anyio, an asynchronous io abstraction library (which currently supports asyncio, trio, and curio).

This'll tie #349, #347 and #174 into one problem, while staying in async library ecosystems of all 3 (possibly 4)

(I've read up on sans-io, and I realise that it's a mentality about async code instead of an actual library implimentation of the python async loop, my apologies)
