If it's for the REPL, it's already there, you simply need to start the
async REPL.

$ python -m asyncio
asyncio REPL 3.8.5 | packaged by conda-forge | (default, Sep 16 2020, 17:43:11)
[Clang 10.0.1 ] on darwin
Use "await" directly instead of "asyncio.run()".
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import asyncio
>>> await asyncio.sleep(1)
>>>

compile and exec  have a mode to allow top-level async as well if you
want it programmatically, then you can `await` your code object.
