feat(papi): add async mode, use it in scale calls

+ Introduce two explicit handling modes to save memory in scale test.
+ Connect in async mode for both handling modes (to avoid reconnects).
+ Support both pre- and post-37758 VPP PAPI async behavior.
+ Use control-ping in dumps to emulate sync mode.
+ Do not use it for single reply to avoid VPP-2033.
+ Fix call sites to get their replies with correct handling mode.
+ Drain enqueued replies to avoid subsequent errors.
+ Retry if read returns None too early.
+ Update docstrings.
- Complexity issues reported by pylint postponed, needs larger refactor.
- Explicit replace of VAT is done in subsequent changes.
