Add task_self() next gen

[thiell]

In ClusterShell code examples, most of the time, task_self() is copied in a local task variable because this is nicer to use. That means that task_self() name is not a good one and the first thing people do is the rename it!

In consequence, a better name should be find and available to refer to the same concept.

• this should not be a function!

Maybe:

• mytask (it sounds like a bit a VisualBasic :))
• ... ?

[st-cea] I prefer curtask. But it cannot be a simple variable as its value would get the task object associated to the thread importing the module. Moreover, it's not trivial to add a property to a module.

Hmm..
