Add a task uniq id as an event attribute

[dinoboff]

Currently, events come with a uid attribute (to match a "start" event to a "stop"/"error" event) and the name (a provided string or the function name). The task name is not necessary unique.

Is it possible to add task id attribute unique to each task?

@dinoboff I am 👍 for this, how would you handle it? Just generate a uid inside undertaker.set?

@phated it wouldn't cover private task used by series and parallel.

What about in buildTree?

[dinoboff]

something like.

    meta = {
      name: name,
      uid: uid++,
      tree: {
        label: name,
        type: 'function',
        nodes: []
      }
    };

    metadata.set(task, meta);
    return meta.tree;

Would it cover all cases?

ps: series and parallel function would also need it

[dinoboff]

the extension helper can handle it :)

I believe this is wrapped up as of 1810ec7
