Generator could also include user-written tasks #3

Description

Idea / Motivation
It would be nice if the SBOM Generator could also look at user-written tasks, for example tasks implemented in C, Structured Text (ST), or similar languages, and include them in the generated SBOM.
Right now, these user-created parts can be an important part of the final application, so having them listed in the SBOM could give a more complete picture of what is actually deployed.
What could be done
-Detect user-generated tasks during SBOM generation
-Add corresponding SBOM entries for these tasks (basic info like name, language, etc.)
-Optionally mark them as user-generated to differentiate them from standard or third‑party components

User note
Of course, this can only be best‑effort. Users should still double‑check the SBOM themselves, especially the entries related to their own code, to make sure everything is correct and complete.
