another thread, this function *must* be used, since :meth:`call_soon` is not
thread-safe.

This function is safe to be called from a reentrant context or signal handler,
however, it is not safe or fruitful to use the returned handle in such contexts.

Raises :exc:`RuntimeError` if called on a loop that's been closed.
This can happen on a secondary thread when the main application is
shutting down.
