westey 56d13bce4e .NET: Add BackgroundAgentsProvider.ReleaseSessionAsync to cancel and release per-session background tasks (#7602)
* Add the abilty for the caller to release and cancel background tasks

* Improve param validation

* Address PR comments

* Address PR comments.

* Address PR comments: cancel tasks before publishing the release

Set IsReleased and publish the ReleaseCompletion only after the in-flight
tasks have actually been cancelled, so a failure to cancel leaves the
session un-released instead of flagging it as released while its tasks are
still running.
