[New-bugs-announce] [issue25675] doc for BaseEventLoop.run_in_executor() says its a coroutine, but it is not

[Ezequiel Alfie]

New submission from Ezequiel Alfie:

Doc says:

coroutine BaseEventLoop.run_in_executor(executor, func, *args)
...<more lines>...
    This method is a coroutine.

However, inspecting the code, I find that this function is not a coroutine. Also this function returns a Future instance, this fact should be mentioned in the doc.
