Implements a native async/await client using Python's asyncio and grpc.aio, providing true asynchronous operations with better concurrency than the existing futures-based approach. Features: - AsyncDgraphClient, AsyncDgraphClientStub, and AsyncTxn classes - Native async/await syntax throughout - Automatic JWT refresh handling - Async context manager support for client and transactions - Connection string support via async_open() function - Full test suite with pytest-asyncio - Comprehensive documentation with examples The sync client remains unchanged, ensuring backward compatibility. Both sync and async clients can be used in the same application.
