This allows for async functions to be passed to the Flask class
instance, for example as a view function,
    @app.route("/")
    async def index():
        return "Async hello"
this comes with a cost though of poorer performance than using the
sync equivalent.
asgiref is the standard way to run async code within a sync context,
and is used in Django making it a safe and sane choice for this.

Werkzeug offers a ContextVar replacement for Python < 3.7, however it
doesn't work across asyncio tasks, hence it makes sense to error out
rather than find there are odd bugs.
Note the docs build requires the latest (dev) Werkzeug due to this
change (to import ContextVar from werkzeug.local).

This allows extensions to override the Flask.ensure_sync method and
have the change apply to blueprints as well. Without this change it is
possible for differing blueprints to have differing ensure_sync
approaches depending on the extension used - which would likely result
in event-loop blocking issues.
This also allows blueprints to have a custom ensure_sync, although
this is a by product rather than an expected use case.
