@angular-devkit/schematics glossary is missing Task

[samherrmann]

The Schematics Glossary doesn't introduce what a Task is, making it difficult for new schematic developers to know what Tasks should be used for and how they work.

The Schematics for libraries page on angular.io demonstrates an example for adding a task, but it also doesn't provide an explanation on what a Task is. When do they run (before/after the Tree has been transformed by Rules)? Do they run in parallel? How do you manage Task dependencies?

This issue is to document Task in the Schematics Glossary table so that it's easier for developers to create their own Tasks.
