Merge 3.4

asyncio: sync with Tulip

- Tulip issue 185: Add a create_task() method to event loops. The create_task()
  method can be overriden in custom event loop to implement their own task
  class. For example, greenio and Pulsar projects use their own task class. The
  create_task() method is now preferred over creating directly task using the
  Task class.
- tests: fix a warning
- fix typo in the name of a test function
- Update AbstractEventLoop: add new event loop methods; update also the unit test

Update asyncio documentation

- Document the new create_task() method
- "Hide" the Task class: point to the create_task() method for interoperability
- Rewrite the documentation of the Task class
- Document the "Pending task destroyed"
- Update output in debug mode of examples in the dev section
- Replace Task() with create_task() in examples
