dicej opened PR #12322 from dicej:fix-subtask-cancel-starting to bytecodealliance:main:

https://github.com/bytecodealliance/wasmtime/pull/12304 uncovered a bug which caused wit-bindgen's cancel-import test to hang. Specifically, cancelling a subtask that was in a starting state turned it into a zombie that never exited, meaning TaskExit::block would block forever without making progress.

This commit properly disposes of the subtask's thread and sets its exited field to true, which allows subtask_drop to delete it entirely. Additionally, I've updated test_cancel to call TaskExit::block to ensure this does not regress.
