/**
* The ReasonerProgressMonitor interface should be implemented by objects that wish to monitor the
* progress of a reasoner. The reasoner whose progress is being monitored will call the methods on
* this interface. The progress monitor is designed to monitor long running reasoner tasks such as
* loading, preprocessing, consistency checking, classification and realisation.
* Tasks are executed sequentially. Nested tasks are not supported.
* The general contract is that the reasoner will call {@link #reasonerTaskStarted(String)}, then
* call either {@link #reasonerTaskBusy()} or {@link #reasonerTaskProgressChanged(int, int)} any
* number of times and finally call {@link #reasonerTaskStopped()} when the task ends or has been
* interrupted. This cycle may then be repeated.
