Support startup, shutdown, and timer events. about responder HOT 2 CLOSED

I'm not convinced this is a good idea, at this time.

Please don't close this yet. The startup one is kinda essential to be honest if you want to perform async setup, like creating a dbpool:

This is due to the event loop not being created before after you've run api.run(), which then blocks.
You could pass your own loop instance as an option into api.run() which would then be passed into uvicorn to use, but it isn't pretty nor pythonic.
