What changed?
Populate Expiry field in persistence.TaskInfo in matching for cassandra implementation using cassandra's TTL for the task column. Previously the field was not populated in nosql implementations. If there is no TTL, use time.Time zero value time.Time{}.
Why?
Expiry is used in an edge case when the task can't be mark as completed. It also will be used by the task completer to determine if the task has expired before retrying to check if it has started
How did you test it?
Unit test and tested on a local server
Potential risks
If the parsing of the ttl value from cassandra is wrong, it could break async task processing. Must validate in staging.
Release notes
Implement persistence.TaskInfo expiry support for Cassandra by utilizing the TTL value of the row's task.
