Async magic methods in contextlib.closing

I was surprised that contextlib has no async analogue of this closing class, because async scripts often use any kind of closings and I think __aenter__ and __aexit__ methods should be added to contextlib.closing, so that we can use contextlib.closing in async code too.

For example:

class SomeAPI:
    ...

    async def request(self):
        pass

    async def aclose(self):
        await self.session.close()
        

async with closing(SomeAPI()) as api:
    response = await api.request()
    print(response)

Also these methods can be moved to another class (like asyncclosing along the lines of asynccontextmanager).

+1, but the closing method should be aclose()

I think this and #21545 accidentally raced with each other to solve the same problem, and #21545 won the race; its aclosing helper will be shipped in 3.10 next week. (Also having a separate aclosing does seem slightly better than overloading closing to call two different methods depending on context, IMO.) So unfortunately there may not be anything left to do with this except, well... closing it. It sucks when this kind of thing happens, but not much to be done :-(

@njsmith, thanks for the clarification.

It's depressing, but that's okay. Good luck 🚀
