Description

In the documentation for !dumpasync there's no mention of what an asterisk (*) in the output means.

https://github.com/microsoft/vs-threading/blob/main/doc/dumpasync.md

I see them added in the code here...

https://github.com/microsoft/vs-threading/blob/127e17de4f30fc1b380426f65f069891973e1406/src/SosThreadingTools/DumpAsyncCommand.cs#L463

...and here.

https://github.com/microsoft/vs-threading/blob/127e17de4f30fc1b380426f65f069891973e1406/src/SosThreadingTools/DumpAsyncCommand.cs#L478

...but I'm not confident I understand their meaning well enough to document them.
