Exception during ExecuteAsync throws Exception that cannot be handled

SshCommand.ExecuteAsync appears to have a race during command startup.

In the current implementation, _tcs is created before _channel.Open() and _channel.SendExecRequest(...) are called:

_tcs = new TaskCompletionSource<object>(TaskCreationOptions.RunContinuationsAsynchronously);
_userToken = cancellationToken;

_channel.DataReceived += Channel_DataReceived;
_channel.ExtendedDataReceived += Channel_ExtendedDataReceived;
_channel.RequestReceived += Channel_RequestReceived;
_channel.Closed += Channel_Closed;
_channel.Open();

_ = _channel.SendExecRequest(CommandText);

return _tcs.Task;

If _channel.Open() or _channel.SendExecRequest(...) throws synchronously due to a connection/session teardown, the method exits before returning _tcs.Task.
If the caller uses the command in a using block, disposal may then execute while _tcs.Task is still incomplete:

if (_tcs is { Task.IsCompleted: false } tcs)
{
    _ = tcs.TrySetException(new ObjectDisposedException(GetType().FullName));
}

This can produce a faulted task that was never returned to the caller and therefore can never be awaited or observed. Later, that can surface via TaskScheduler.UnobservedTaskException.

Expected behavior

If command startup fails after _tcs has been created, the failure should not leave behind an orphaned faulted task.
Possible acceptable outcomes:

• ExecuteAsync returns a faulted task, or
• ExecuteAsync catches startup exceptions after _tcs creation, completes _tcs accordingly, and returns it, or
• startup is arranged so no internal task exists before all synchronous failure points have passed.

Actual behavior

Under transient network/session failure, a caller can observe:

• a synchronous exception from ExecuteAsync, and later
• an unrelated TaskScheduler.UnobservedTaskException caused by the internal _tcs.Task being faulted during Dispose() without ever having been returned.

Observed trigger

In our case this happened around network loss / socket failure. We saw a preceding socket error similar to:

System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: A socket operation was attempted to an unreachable network

That seems consistent with the session being torn down while a command is being started.

Suggested fix direction

Wrap the startup section after _tcs creation in a try/catch, and ensure that any exception either:

• completes _tcs and returns _tcs.Task, or
• resets internal state so no hidden faulted task remains.

A minimal fix would likely be around the section between _tcs = new TaskCompletionSource(...) and return _tcs.Task.

Start at SshCommand.ExecuteAsync and trace the startup sequence from _tcs creation through _channel.Open() and SendExecRequest(...), then inspect how Dispose() handles an incomplete task. Verify behavior during a startup exception and ensure the failure is returned or no hidden faulted task remains.
