EinhugurRuntime.Task Class (console safe)
A class representing a task that runs on Native threads. Multiple CPU cores can be used across multiple tasks.

Best case scenario is when Entry and Exit are as small work as possible.
Entry is ran when Task object is created. Typically Entry would create relevant Xojo object which cannot be done in Native thread space.
Exit ran after the native thread, and in most cases will be clean up of Xojo objects that cannot be cleaned in native thread space. Like the Entry the bast case is when this portion is as small as possible.
Tasks can make use of multiple CPU cores, if creating multiple tasks and starting them with RunAsync.

RunAsync | Runs the task asynchronously. |
SetCancellationToken | Sets cancellation token for the class. |
WaitFor | WaitFor is convenience method which runs the task asynchronously and does do event loop to wait. |
Delegates
