[docs] [issue24487] Change asyncio.async() → ensure_future()

[Martin Panter]

New submission from Martin Panter:

The async() function is marked as deprecated in 3.4.4. This patch replaces most references to it with references to ensure_future(). The exception is <https://docs.python.org/3.4/library/asyncio-eventloop.html#asyncio.BaseEventLoop.create_task>, which suggests using it in Python < 3.4.2.
