recipetool: allow recipe create handlers to specify bitbake tasks to run

When creating a recipe there can be cases where there is a class that
does some of the recipe creation (such as cargo-update-recipe-crates).

To avoid duplication of code, look for run_task assignments in the
extravalues dictionary returned by the handler, and if it is set then
call that task after writing the recipe.
