gh-100160: Restore and deprecate implicit creation of an event loop (GH-100410)

Partially revert changes made in GH-93453.

asyncio.DefaultEventLoopPolicy.get_event_loop() now emits a
DeprecationWarning and creates and sets a new event loop instead of
raising a RuntimeError if there is no current event loop set.
