This PR applies the solution worked out in a toy POC Host tasks are executed in a separate thread from the main thread which submitted the kernel and incremented reference count on objects we want to keep alive. When kernel submission occurs near the end of the script, the CPython interpreter may have begun finalization process by the time the kernel completes the execution. `PyThread_Ensure` would crash in that case. So execute the host task only if `Py_IsInitialized()`. The only testing of this scenario is to submit the kernel at the end and not call queue synchronization.

This PR applies the solution worked out in a toy POC
Host tasks are executed in a separate threads from
the main thread which submitted the kernel and incremented
reference counts.
When kernel submission occurs near the end of the script,
the CPython interpreter may have begun finalization process
by the time the kernel completes the execution.
PyThread_Ensurewould crash in that case. So execute the hosttask only if
Py_IsInitialized().The only testing of this scenario is to submit the kernel at
the end and not call queue synchronization.
