Support for AsyncIO

[siddhantgoel]

Building async support into this package would make a lot of sense. One use case, for example, would be to do networked IO in parallel while file chunks are being uploaded. This is required for S3 uploads (or basically uploads to any other file hosting service).

The API for how this should look like is not yet clear. Async code (at least how Python implements it) tends to "split" the codebase into sync and async parts, so we would need to figure that one out first.

There's a discussion and some ideas in #29 .

Is there any plan to build async support? Currently I am using FastApi and UploadFile class to get the file input. It writes the data to disk, so not efficient when large zip files are uploaded.

Yes, I'd really like to have async support built into this library but at the moment have time constraints on my end.
