+Subject: [PATCH] [Python] Implement async friendly GetConnectedDevice
+
+Currently GetConnectedDeviceSync() is blocking e.g. when a new session
+needs to be created. This is not asyncio friendly as it blocks the
+whole event loop.
+
+Implement a asyncio friendly variant GetConnectedDevice() which is
+a co-routine function which can be awaited.
