Yury, could you tweak the syntax for `await` so that we can write the
most common usages without parentheses? In particular I'd like to be
able to write
```
return await foo()
with await foo() as bar: ...
foo(await bar(), await bletch())
```
Making 'await' a prefix operator with the same precedence
as unary minus would allow most reasonable usages, I think.
The only reason "yield from" has such a constrained syntax
is that it starts with "yield", which is similarly constrained.
Since 'await' is a brand new keyword isn't bound by those constraints.
