net: clean shutdown of the async runtime (#38425)

The previous use of a static variable for the runtime prevented it from
shutting down cleanly, because shutdown requires dropping or taking
ownership of it. This PR switches the static variable to a handle only,
and introduces a new trait to pass a handle to the async runtime to the
constellation, where it can be shut-down along with other components and
help reduce our count of still running threads after shutdown.

Testing: manual testing, and covered by unit-test in net, and wpt tests.
Fixes: part of - https://github.com/servo/servo/issues/30849
