hi
i'm working on an async version of `ModelForm` on a third party package
a problem that occurs is the lack of async support in mant to many fields
in particular,
[_save_m2m](https://github.com/django/django/blob/main/django/forms/models.py#L536)
calls
[save_form_data](https://github.com/django/django/blob/main/django/db/models/fields/related.py#L2010),
but there is no async equivalent to this mathod
even tho `save_form_data` is basically calling
[ManyRelatedManager.set](https://github.com/django/django/blob/main/django/db/models/fields/related_descriptors.py#L1275)
which has an async equivalent
so i think adding an async version is a feasible option, ofc this means
adding async version of other methods of ManyToManyField that need one
so i'm volunteering for this
