[issue33544] Asyncio Event.wait() is a hold over from before awaitable, and should be awaitable

[Hrvoje Nikšić]

Hrvoje Nikšić <hniksic at gmail.com> added the comment:

Deprecating Event.wait would be incorrect because Event was designed to mimic the threading.Event class which has a (blocking) wait() method[1].

Supporting `await event` is still worthwhile, though.
