await MaterialDialog.Instance.AlertAsync not waiting
🐛 Bug Report
A call to await MaterialDialog.Instance.AlertAsync does not wait unitl the dialog's dismiss before continuing.
Doing some tests, calling var msgResult = await MaterialDialog.Instance.ConfirmAsync actually waits so I looked at the code to see what the differences are.
I think the problem is due to the way the dialog is shown on the AlertAsync: in AlertAsync the task returned is the one from await dialog.ShowAsync

On ConfirmAsync the returned task is the one from InputTaskCompletionSource which is fired only after a button press

For now a workaround is just to call ConfirmAsync instead of AlertAsync and setting dismissiveText to null, with this we have basically the same funcionality of AlertAsync.
