Contributions summary:Sean primarily contributed to enhancing the asynchronous capabilities of the GraphQL .NET library. Their work involved implementing support for async field resolution, including modifications to the `DocumentExecuter`, `FieldType`, and related classes. Furthermore, the user refactored the code to accept any `Task<T>` type, removed the `ResolveAsync` from the `FieldType` and also added cancellation token support. Several tests were adjusted and added to validate these asynchronous features and the cancellation functionality.
