RxTest's TestScheduler causes a crash when used in Swift Testing:

When running a test inside the Swift Testing system, the TestScheduler uses VirtualTimeScheduler which, at several points, checks to ensure it's running on the main thread. However since Swift Testing runs tests on background threads, the test harness will crash on the assertion.

Expected outcome:

I expected that VirtualTimeScheduler would be thread agnostic. At worst, it would ensure that all its methods were run on the same thread as the start method was run on, but that's about it.

What actually happens:

The VirtualTimeScheduler asserts because it's not being run on the main thread.

Self contained code example that reproduces the issue:

struct ExampleTests {
    @Test func testExample() async throws {
        let scheduler = TestScheduler(initialClock: 0)
        scheduler.start()
    }
}
