Interface and implementations of various task runners.

[Task Runners](/concepts/task-runners/) in Prefect are responsible for managing the execution of Prefect task runs. Generally speaking, users are not expected to interact with task runners outside of configuring and initializing them for a flow.

Example:
    ```
    >>> from prefect import flow, task
    >>> from prefect.task_runners import SequentialTaskRunner
    >>> from typing import List
    >>>
    >>> @task
    >>> def say_hello(name):
    ...     print(f"hello {name}")
    >>>
    >>> @task
    >>> def say_goodbye(name):
    ...     print(f"goodbye {name}")
    >>>
    >>> @flow(task_runner=SequentialTaskRunner())
    >>> def greetings(names: List[str]):
    ...     for name in names:
    ...         say_hello(name)
    ...         say_goodbye(name)
    >>>
    >>> greetings(["arthur", "trillian", "ford", "marvin"])
    hello arthur
    goodbye arthur
    hello trillian
    goodbye trillian
    hello ford
    goodbye ford
    hello marvin
    goodbye marvin
    ```

    Switching to a `DaskTaskRunner`:
    ```
    >>> from prefect_dask.task_runners import DaskTaskRunner
    >>> flow.task_runner = DaskTaskRunner()
    >>> greetings(["arthur", "trillian", "ford", "marvin"])
    hello arthur
    goodbye arthur
    hello trillian
    hello ford
    goodbye marvin
    hello marvin
    goodbye ford
    goodbye trillian
    ```

For usage details, see the [Task Runners](/concepts/task-runners/) documentation.
