Since functions implemented by `gevent_util.h` are used also by the
new experimental `Aio` module, the file holding these functions needs
to be renamed to something more meaningful.
Implement the minimal stuff for making a unary call with the new
experimental gRPC Python implementation for Asyncio, called Aio.
What has been added:
- Minimal iomgr code for performing the required network and timer
calls.
- Minimal Cython code implementing the channel, call and the callback
context.
- Minimal Python code that mimics the synchronous implementation but
designed to be asynchronous.
Testing considerations:
Tests have to be executed using the `GRPC_ENABLE_FORK_SUPPORT=0`
environment variable for skipping the fork handles installed by
the core library. This is due to the usage of a syncrhonous server
used as a fixture executed in another process.

In https://github.com/grpc/grpc/issues/19910, it was pointed out that
raising an exception from a Future callback would cause the channel spin
thread to terminate. If there are outstanding events on the channel,
this will cause calls to Channel.close() to block indefinitely.
This commit ensures that the channel spin thread does not die. Instead,
exceptions will be logged at ERROR level.
By popular demand, we'll now be offering separate py_grpc_library and
py_proto_library targets sharing the same interface as within google3.
This change necessitated some modifications to how we pull in our own
Python-level dependencies and how we make those available to those
pulling in our project via Bazel.
There is now a grpc_python_deps() Bazel workspace rule that pulls in the
appropriate dependencies, which should be called from the client
project's WORKSPACE file. A test has been added to the bazel/test/
directory to verify that this behavior works as intended.
It's worth noting that the protobuf repository's usage of Starlark
bind() caused a great deal of trouble in ensuring that we could also
pull in six.
This change also required a change in the way generated proto code is
imported in the channelz and health-check modules, as well as in their
associated tests. We were importing them two different ways, each
relative. This resulted in two different module objects being imported
into the process, which were incompatible. I am not sure exactly what
caused this behavior to begin, as this should have been possible before
this PR. As a workaround, I am simply trying two different absolute
imports and using the one that works. This should function both inside
and outside of Bazel environments.
