When deferrable operators run in the triggerer's async event loop and synchronously access connections (e.g., via @cached_property), the `ExecutionAPISecretsBackend` failed silently. This occurred because `SUPERVISOR_COMMS.send()` uses `async_to_sync`, which raises `RuntimeError` when called within an existing event loop in a greenback portal context. Add specific RuntimeError handling in `ExecutionAPISecretsBackend` that detects this scenario and uses `greenback.await_()` to call the async versions (aget_connection/aget_variable) as a fallback. It was originally fixed in apache#55799 for 3.1.0 but apache#56602 introduced a bug. Ideally all providers handle this better and have better written Triggers. Example PR for Databricks: apache#55568 Fixes apache#57145

The job works as I would expect it to now!
If connection exists:
If it doesn't:
For a non databricks deferred job:
http = HttpOperator(
task_id="test_HTTP_op",
http_conn_id="http_default",
endpoint="get",
method="GET",
deferrable=True,
response_check=lambda response: response.status_code == 200,
log_response=True,
)
