Can we add another override here for failing a task that automatically takes in an Exception and handles all internal things needed by DurableTask to ensure that the failure is handled correctly?
Example:
def fail(self, ex: Exception):
self._is_complete = True
self._exception = TaskFailedError(
"Error occured",
ex
)
if self._parent is not None:
self._parent.on_child_completed(self)

I have updated the signature of CompletableTask.fail() to allow Exceptions as input, it'll handle things from there.
Choosing not to add an implementation of fail() to Task, as it violates the design of having CompletableTask vs CompositeTask. If an externally-defined class inheriting from CompositeTask needs to call fail(), it can double-inherit from CompletableTask (which more correctly describes the behavior of that task anyway).
