[New-bugs-announce] [issue45625] Add support for top-level await

[Fred]

New submission from Fred <eldmannen at gmail.com>:

I want top-level await without any boilerplate code or setup.
Just write a "await" statement on line 1 without any indention.

    #!/usr/bin/env python3
    import asyncio
    await asyncio.sleep(1)


I don't want to have to call asyncio.run(main()), and I don't  want to have to put the await inside an async function.
