I think it's ready to try out with Datasette to see if it's a pattern that will work here.
I'm going to attempt to refactor `TableView` to use it. There are two overall goals here:
- Use `asyncinject` to add parallel execution of some aspects of the table page - most notably I want to be able to execute the `count(*)` query, the `select ...` query, the various faceting queries and the facet suggestion queries in parallel - and measure if doing so is good for performance.
- Use it to execute different output formats (possibly with some changes to the existing `register_output_renderer()` plugin hook). I want CSV and JSON to use the same mechanism that plugins use.
