## User experience 

 A task that dispatches some number of tasks returns a list of created resources that includes at least one TaskGroup href.  

 The user can then perform a GET on the TaskGroup and receive a data structure that looks like this: 

 <pre> 
 { 
     "pulp_created": "2019-07-23T08:18:12.927007Z", 
     "pulp_href": "/pulp/api/v3/task-groups/59f8a786-c7d7-4e2b-ad07-701479d403c5/", 
     "description": "foo group of tasks", 
     "waiting": 0, 
     "skipped": 0, 
     "running": 0, 
     "completed": 1, 
     "failed": 1, 
     "canceled": 0 
 } 
 </pre> 

 Users that want detailed information on all of the tasks in the task group can do so via the /task/ api.

 ## Implementation 

 TaskGroup model, viewset, and serializer need to be created. 

 Task model needs to have an optional 'task_group' foreign key added.  

 The enque_with_reservation[0] method needs to accept an optional 'task_group' keyword argument. When the 'task_group' is specified it is saved as a ForeignKey on the Task model that is created for tracking that task.
