Remarks
Removes this task from the executor's internal queue if it is present, thus causing it not to be run if it has not already started.
This method may be useful as one part of a cancellation scheme. It may fail to remove tasks that have been converted into other forms before being placed on the internal queue. For example, a task entered using submit might be converted into a form that maintains Future status. However, in such cases, method #purge may be used to remove those Futures that have been cancelled.
