A minimal Django REST framework async patcher

Overview

This gist provides a minimal implementation of an asynchronous APIView for Django REST Framework (DRF).

from path.to.async_apiviews import APIView, Request, BasePermission
from rest_framework.response import Response

class AsyncExampleView(APIView):
