/**
* Schedules a macrotask to run after the current events have been processed.
*
* Unlike microtasks (scheduled using the Node 0.10+ `process.nextTick` API),
* where scheduling additional microtasks inside a microtask will cause them
* to be run inside the same microtask checkpoint, any macrotasks scheduled
* inside a macrotask will not be executed until the next iteration
* of the event loop.
*
* @param callback The macrotask to schedule.
* @param args The arguments to pass to the macrotask callback.
*
* @return The ID of the macrotask, which can be used to abort
* the macrotask with `clearImmediate`.

* Aborts the specified macrotask before it's run.
