[issue39765] asyncio loop.add_signal_handler() may not behave as expected

[Andrew Svetlov]

Other threads are not related.

Speaking about the main thread that runs an event loop with the signal handler installed -- the handler is executed along with other async code.
If the loop executes some user-provides async task -- it executes the signal handler as well if needed.

This is why I suspect that the discussed program is not completely correct.
