Yoh Deadfall ffde86efa0 Update to edition 2021 on master (#3028)
Objective
During work on #3009 I've found that not all jobs use actions-rs, and therefore, an previous version of Rust is used for them. So while compilation and other stuff can pass, checking markup and Android build may fail with compilation errors.

Solution
This PR adds `action-rs` for any job running cargo, and updates the edition to 2021.

bevy_tasks

A refreshingly simple task executor for bevy. :)

This is a simple threadpool with minimal dependencies. The main usecase is a scoped fork-join, i.e. spawning tasks from a single thread and having that thread await the completion of those tasks. This is intended specifically for bevy as a lighter alternative to rayon for this specific usecase. There are also utilities for generating the tasks from a slice of data. This library is intended for games and makes no attempt to ensure fairness or ordering of spawned tasks.

It is based on async-executor, a lightweight executor that allows the end user to manage their own threads. async-executor is based on async-task, a core piece of async-std.
