ExtensionAsyncRequest

Sends a command to the server-side Extension attached to the Zone or to a Room (alternative version).

This is an alternative version of ExtensionRequest that can be run asynchronously on the server side. While all requests are processed and executed sequentially, in the order they're sent to the server, there can be a few situations where running requests in parallel could be useful.

For instance, if you're sending fast updates to the server in a real-time game and you need to send an occasional request that talks to a database or other slow-responding services, you may disrupt the timing of the updates. To avoid this, use this request. On the server side it will run on a separate virtual thread without blocking the subsequent requests.
