deferred event not processed when in any orthogonal region other than first

[TPHandford]

Expected Behavior

Deferred events should be reprocessed when transitioning into a new state

Actual Behavior

If the state is not in the first orthogonal region of the state machine, the deferred event is not processed

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

1. See following code https://godbolt.org/z/r6zYxWKGM
2. The code contains two state machines which use deferred tasks and orthogonal regions. The two state machines are identical except for the order in which the orthogonal regions are defined. Deferred tasks only work in the version that contains them in the first orthogonal region.

Specifications

• Version: 1.1.9
• Platform: Any
