Jv, I've committed the complete feature in this
branch<https://code.launchpad.net/~simone.busoli/nunitv2/async-support-void-and-task-return-types>already,
I would suggest you have it a look and come up with improvements
or additional test scenarios eventually. For instance I'm not 100%
confident of the implementation of the custom synchronization context, but
I didn't find any way to make any test fail yet.
