`asyncio.Queue.shutdown` talks about threads? Copy-and-paste error from `queue.Queue`?

Documentation

The documentation for the asyncio.Queue.shutdown method says (emphasis mine)

The queue can no longer grow. Future calls to put() raise QueueShutDown. Currently blocked callers of put() will be unblocked and will raise QueueShutDown in the formerly blocked thread.

I'm doubtful whether it should be talking about threads here and not about concepts from asyncio, Task possibly? I wonder whether that's a copy-paste-error from the queue.Queue documentation.

Cheers,
Damian

I agree, I think we should change it to a coroutine or task, PRs are welcome!
