Please add support for UniTask

[ManuelRauber]

Hi,

UniTask (https://github.com/Cysharp/UniTask) is a super nice library for having async/await support for Unity, e.g. it allows to await Tasks in Coroutines or await Addressables.LoadAssetAsync etc.

You also can mark Unity's Start method to be a UniTask, like this:

private async UniTaskVoid Start() {
  // ...
}

Rider now reports two things:

1. "Incorrect return type" which is not true (see https://github.com/Cysharp/UniTask#async-void-vs-async-unitaskvoid at the bottom of this section)
2. Start is never used (that's a following error from 1.)

It would be super nice, if the plugin could handle the usage of UniTask.

Thanks!

It is acceptable to return any instance of the struct/class of any Unity function.

It is not strongly related to the UniTask (JB doesn't like 3-party dependencies).

//all are valid
private string OnEnable() => "";
private int OnEnable() => 1234;
private Guid Update() => default;
private MyClass FixedUpdate() => default;

Furthermore, Unity will release analog of the UniTask some day and this issue will need to be solved in future anyway.

Notification slipped through. :)

Indeed, good hint! An according to the linked blog post, they are talking with UniTask so it seems like a win-win situation :)
