This will allow async frameworks and apps to mostly work properly - where with only thread-local storage they could not as the individual async tasks would interfere with each other's context. A new task-local context is created on get_context() for each task and all subtasks inherit this to be able to correlate entry and exit spans.
This is not a complete and final solution as there will still be problems with a single entry point executing multiple async exit requests simultaneously. Also if a context is created BEFORE the async handler loop starts then all the handlers would share the same parent context, but this does not happen in Tornado.
