 * Recurrence
 * ----------
 *
 * Tasks control their recurrence schedule. The [runOnce] function returns -1L to signify that the

 *
 * A task has at most one next execution. If the same task instance is scheduled multiple times, the
 * earliest one wins. This applies to both executions scheduled with [TaskRunner.Queue.schedule] and
