IAtomicTask is the base interface that every concrete atomic task must implement. An atomic task receives a parameter map (string -> TaskValue) at Execute() time and returns a TaskStatus indicating success, failure, or running (for multi-frame tasks). If the system needs to interrupt a running task it calls Abort() so the task can clean up any state.

Backwards-compatible context API (Phase 3.0)

ExecuteWithContext() is a non-breaking addition that provides richer runtime context (World*, LocalBlackboard*, EntityID, dt, StateTimer). The default implementation forwards to the legacy Execute(params) so existing tasks continue to work without any changes. New tasks may override ExecuteWithContext() instead of Execute() to access the context.

C++14 compliant - no C++17/20 features.
