Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Block users, in some language appropriate way, from producing workflow commands in a read only context . Currently read only contexts are query handlers and update validators

Describe the solution you'd like

In Go I would expect the workflow task processing to panic. In java probably throw an exception. In either case I would epxet the workflow task to fail, but not the whole workflow.

Research direction

Read the linked Go and Java issues first, then compare how query handlers and update validators produce workflow commands in the relevant SDKs. Define the behavior for each unchecked SDK and verify that an invalid workflow task fails without failing the whole workflow.
