Is it possible to get `flow_run.name` from inside a *task*?

From inside a *flow* this works:
```from prefect.context import get_run_context
get_run_context().flow_run.name```
but inside a task, it throws
```AttributeError: 'TaskRunContext' object has no attribute 'flow_run'```

```def get_flow_run_id() -&gt; str:
    run_context = get_run_context()

    if isinstance(run_context, TaskRunContext):
        flow_run_id = run_context.task_run.dict().get("flow_run_id")
    else:
        flow_run_id = run_context.flow_run.dict().get("id")
    return str(flow_run_id)```

Is it posible to get the `flow_run_name` from the `flow_run_id`?

It's not part of the context but I suppose you could pull it by calling the rest api

Got an answer from prefect that this works if using prefect==2.9.0 or later:

```import prefect.runtime

prefect.runtime.flow_run.name```
