Using PR 3138 of bpo-31234, I noticed that test_asyncio leaks dangling threads.

Tests which randomly leak threads:
---
test.test_asyncio.test_base_events.BaseEventLoopWithSelectorTests.test_create_connection_no_inet_pton
test.test_asyncio.test_base_events.BaseEventLoopWithSelectorTests.test_create_connection_service_name
test.test_asyncio.test_base_events.BaseEventLoopWithSelectorTests.test_create_connection_bluetooth
test.test_asyncio.test_base_events.BaseEventLoopWithSelectorTests.test_create_datagram_endpoint_no_addrinfo
test.test_asyncio.test_futures.DuckTests.test_wrap_future
test.test_asyncio.test_futures.CFutureTests.test_wrap_future
test.test_asyncio.test_futures.CFutureTests.test_wrap_future_use_global_loop
test.test_asyncio.test_futures.PyFutureTests.test_wrap_future
test.test_asyncio.test_futures.PyFutureTests.test_wrap_future_use_global_loop
test.test_asyncio.test_selector_events.BaseSelectorEventLoopTests.test_sock_connect_resolve_using_socket_params
test.test_asyncio.test_tasks.RunCoroutineThreadsafeTests.test_run_coroutine_threadsafe
test.test_asyncio.test_tasks.RunCoroutineThreadsafeTests.test_run_coroutine_threadsafe_with_timeout
test.test_asyncio.test_tasks.RunCoroutineThreadsafeTests.test_run_coroutine_threadsafe_task_cancelled
test.test_asyncio.test_tasks.RunCoroutineThreadsafeTests.test_run_coroutine_threadsafe_task_factory_exception
---

Write this list into "tests" and run "python3 -m test --matchfile=tests".

I proposed PR 3252 to only fix unit tests, but not asyncio.

An alternative is to modify BaseEventLoop.close() to replace executor.shutdown(wait=False) with executor.shutdown(wait=True), but it would change the behaviour. I'm not sure if we want to wait until all threads complete on close()?

I picked the safe option: only modify unit tests.

Hum, EventLoopTestsMixin.tearDown() still has a bug. I reopen the issue.
