In multiple places there was legacy references to async abstractions that I believe have been removed.
In many places there was legacy (and deprecated) async syntax which has been corrected.
The main function has been abstracted to run a async def _main to simplify the logic.
asyncio.get_event_loop().run_until_complete(_main()) was chosen over the simpler asyncio.run(_main()) syntax since this library supports 3.6, where asyncio.run wasn't introduced until Python 3.7 .
