"Not In" query for task definition keys

[jordy-cantaert-vaph]

User Story (Required on creation)

We would like to be able to use to engine to query active tasks based on their definition key not being present in a provided list of keys. As far as we can tell there is currently no method available for this. It would be great if some functionality could be added to the TaskQuery class for this case.

Functional Requirements

We need to be able to search tasks filtering out task definition keys that are present in a provided list.

Technical Requirements

Add a method to the TaskQuery class to query tasks filtering out task definition keys that are present in a provided list:

engine.getTaskService()
    .createTaskQuery()
    .taskDefinitionKeyNotIn("some_def_key", "some_other_def_key")

The request looks reasonable and makes sense to proceed with the review of this little feature.
I'll try to have a look at the end of this week if i have enough time.

If time is not enough, please be informed that the request will be processed.
Will try to keep you posted.
