TaskEvent

This event records the creation of a Task.

Note that the embedded TaskInfo object is a snapshot of the Task state at the time of its creation, so its state will always be "queued". To find the current status of the task, query for the current state of the Task using the eventChainId in the embedded TaskInfo object.
