Description
### **Problem: When I forcefully finish the execution of MSBuild.exe it doesn't flush any information to .binlog**
#### Scenario to repro it:
I have a custom task like so:
```c#
public class TaskTeste : Task, ICancelableTask
{
private readonly CancellationTokenSource cts = new CancellationTokenSource();
public void Cancel() => cts.Cancel();
public override bool Execute()
{
return cts.Token.WaitHandle.WaitOne(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(5));
}
}
```
and I've a `.proj` file that uses it, like so:
```xml
```
and I execute the project like this:
```powershell
msbuild Testing.proj /bl:InnerCall.binlog
```
and after a few seconds I kill the `msbuild.exe` process using:
```
taskkill /F /IM msbuild.exe
```
After this, I expected the `innerCall.binlog` file to contain some information about the project execution. But it turns out the file is always empty. By the way, an `InnerCall.ProjectImports.zip` file is created, however that file isn't created when I let the process successfully finish.
