Quamash and pyzmq with asyncio about quamash HOT 3 OPEN

see #13 for more info on zeromq I think @horazont or @aknuds1 had a patch out with the aiozmq project to get quamash working better, but it was rejected because they wanted to do go a different way. (I searched the chat logs but couldn't find what I was looking for). They wanted to remove the need to use a custom event loop with zmq and just use the network primitives built into whichever event loop you are using.

You could try using zmq's event loop in the client, and then just doing:

while True:
    app.processEvents()
    yield from asyncio.sleep(0)

in a coroutine and not use quamash.

The error

TypeError: QSocketNotifier(sip.voidptr, QSocketNotifier.Type, parent: QObject = None): argument 1 has unexpected type 'Socket'

indicates that QSocketNotifier got an unexpected argument. It seems to me, that this should be fixed in the zeromq client by passing in a file descriptor (an integer) to add_reader instead of a socket.socket object. Luckily, this is an easy fix: loop.add_reader(socket.fileno()).

I ran into a very similar issue with asyncio-mqtt and asyncqt (the latter is a fork of quamash).
