Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/hibiken/asynq/issues/751

Originally assigned to: @hibiken on GitHub.

Describe the bug
If the server takes a task with an expired deadline it moves the task to be retried. It has no sense, a task with a expired deadline shouldn’t be retried. Also the handler is no executed so i don’t have the chance of do something with the task

To Reproduce

func main() {
	cli := asynq.NewClient(asynq.RedisClientOpt{Addr: "localhost:6379"})
	defer cli.Close()

	task := asynq.NewTask("foo", []byte("payload"), asynq.Deadline(time.Now().Add(-24*time.Hour)))

	tInf, err := cli.Enqueue(task)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatalln(err)
	}
	log.Println(tInf.ID)
}

Expected behavior
If the task has an expired deadline an special handler should be executed. It shouldn’t be retried

I also encountered this behavoir and it doesn't really make sense. However, this may be working as intended as described in the CHANGELOG. But there is no way to even handle the retry, it just gets stuck in a loop.
