[issue39623] __str__ and __repr__ for asyncio.Task still omit arg values

We could limit the length of the recursive __repr__ functions, and display partial reprs suffixed with ..., like in numpy for example.

We can define that the maximum wanted length of a task repr would be, say, 80 characters, get the reprs of all task arguments, and if the sum length is more than the maximum we can trim the longest ones and suffix with a '...'.

Maybe this restriction shouldn't be applied if python is built in debug mode.
