Bug #20294

`async` argument of `create` methods is difficult to use in SDKs
Story points:
-
Description
Specifically in the Python SDK, async is a reserved keyword. You have to put the argument in a dictionary and apply it with **kwargs.
I'm guessing Python is not the only language affected by this issue. It may be harder to work around in other languages too.
We should give the argument a new canonical name and support async for backwards compatibility.

We should double check if 'async' even does anything.
At one point we had made some operations optionally 'async' because they took too long but eventually we ended up fixing the performance so the async flag was no longer necessary, but I think we kept the parameter to avoid breaking anything that was using it.
