task: Add function to set task priority

I'm proposing a different approach to RT threads. Instead of having a separate
thread pool, we can instead just set the priority of the thread when a Task is
executed and reset it afterwards, that then allows us to change the priority of
a task while its running. That means we can set the priority of a whole series
of interconnected tasks using events. In my case, I want the tasks that will be
used to receive audio to be RT, but not video (for example), so I can just send
the event up the pipeline when I add the audio sink, without having to go fish
into rtpbin or decodebin.
