This PR fixes the cancellation safety of
asyncio.create_subprocess_exec. This is the simplest change I can think of which fixes the issue and is small enough that it can backported as well. A larger change would be rewrite some part of_UnixSubprocessTransportto make it cancellation safe but that would be a much larger change that I would be comfortable doing for 3.15 only.I plan to add some tests by end of week.
